Hi Ginger,

I know I may be a little late to the party here, but I am descended from John Percell. I did happen to find a record that George was a Reverend. And it appears as he is the only one with the Percell last name, and his parents and siblings appear to be Pursley. I'm not sure what information you have been able to find in the 3 years since this posting, but I thought I might chime in and see if I might be of some assistance?

I found documentation on Ancestry.com reflecting this. I can pull what I have. Is there an email address that I can send it to you? Or would you prefer on here? George was the only one to take the Persell last name. I know we are using 2 different spellings of the Persell name. I'm just used to the spelling from my more direct line (Hiram H. Persell).

Warm regards,

Anna Chan
