Death's Work
Potter County is again called upon to mourn the loss by death of one of its citizens, whose life has formed a prominent part in its history.
William M. Perkins died on Wednesday the 20th, at his home in Swedish Township of consumption.
Mr. Perkins was born in Truxton, Courtland County, New York, June 18th, 1824 and at an early age settled with his parents in the town of Andover, Allegany County, N.Y. where he lived until 30 years of age, when he removed to Ulysses township in this county, and removed there engaged in active business until 1886 and amassed a handsome fortune, when finding himself in failing health he divided the major part of his property among his children, retired from business and settled on his farm in Sweden township and remained there until the time of his death.
When about 29 years old he was married to Miss Melissa Dean who bore him three sons, Luther Manson B. and Will Burdette, all of whom are business men in this county. In 1861 his wife died and about 1863, he married Miss Fannie Glace, of Ulysses township and by her had three children, Arthur E., Garrett and Rose B., of whom Arthur, Rose and their mother survive him. Mr. Perkins was one of the most successful business men in the county and by industry, economy and active attention to business was able to give each of his children a handsome start in life, and provide himself with the comforts of life.
Mr. Perkins was a man of positive views, whether moral. religious, social or political with great tenacity. he was a diligent Bible student, and especially in his latter life devoted much of his time to its study, and died a zealous advocate of the faith in which he lived. A benevolent citizen, ever ready to assist the needy, a progressive man in every respect, a faithful and self-sacrificing friend, he made himself felt in the community in which he passed his life, and his memory will long be cherished by those that have been the recipients of his generosity as well as by those who have with him been the pioneers in the development of Potter county, and have lived wit him to see it change from an almost unbroken forest to a prosperous and growing portion of the State. His children as well as the widow that is left to travel the balance of life's journey alone, ahve the earnest sympathy of the whole community in which they live in this their hour of bereavement.

As we have done for numerous Pennsylvania counties (hover over each county on the PA map on our home page), we are posting completely free, downloadable township images from the Map of Potter Co., Penna. from Recent and Actual Surrveys and Official Records published under the superintendence of F.W. Beers by J.W. Vose & Co. in 1893. This map, found in the Library of Congress, is in the public domain but the images we have taken of the atlas posted below belong to us and are not to be used for commercial use. For those wishing to use them for personal use (including illustrating a family history you are working on), we give permission to use them, but we would appreciate attribution to Ancestor Tracks. It takes much time and effort to locate, process, and post these and the many other county images we have posted, so we expect and appreciate this courtesy. We hope that you will find this atlas a useful tool for when coupled with the censuses and published county histories. Click on the township of your choice and once they have downloaded completely, click on them again to enlarge and clarify them. They may be saved to your computer by right-clicking and selecting "Save Image As..."
