perkins

O.K.,I got a post by a Barnett Family that connects to Perkins.They said there was a John perkins in West Virginia,or rather a Perkins Family around the time span that I have been searching for.I am thinking that John Perkins was born sometime in 1870’s.Maybe 1873 or 1875,I could be wrong.His daughter,Ada Lee,my Grandmother was born April 1908.Died in 1956.in 1930 Census,she stated father John was born in West Virginia,and mother Effie was born in Virginia.I recently found out also that my Grandfather Senter also lived in Tazwell,Virginia.I know he was born in Grayson Co.Virginia.Nearly all of the Senter Family came from Va.N.C.,S.C.,Tenn.,Ga.and Mississippi,some even in Ala.I find alot of Perkins in the same areas,especially Va.and Carolina’s.What am I missing or over looking?Any ideas?
