- PERRITT.-Another numerous family of the county is the Perritt family. Of the old Perritts, there were four brothers known to the writer, viz: David, Joseph, Jesse and John.
...
David only has left posterity; he married a Miss Smith, a sister of old Mr. Hugh Smith, and he in turn married a sister of David Perritt (this latter is according to information, may be wrong). The old man Perritt raised a family, mostly sons, David B., Needham, William, Bennett, Jesse, John E. and Asa, and one daughter, if no more. David B. Perritt married Miss Martha Edwards, daughter of the late Rev. David Edwards, and by her had several children, sons and daughters; and they in turn have perpetuated the name and connections to a second and, perhaps, third generation, and of whom the writer knows nothing. Needham Perritt married a Miss Moody, sister of the late Joshua W. Moody, a man highly esteemed for his many good qualities and noble traits of character. Needham Perritt is dead ; he left a considerable family, sons and daughters, and they (the children) have become fathers and mothers, and extending down to another generation or more. William Perritt married a Miss Carmichael, daughter of the late Dugald C. Carmichael, of Buck Swamp and Maiden Down; William Perritt is dead, and left a son, Morgan, and three daughters, who, it is supposed, are among the present inhabitants of the country, unknown to the writer. Bennett Perritt married a Miss Powers, sister of our esteemed fellow-citizen, Mitchell Powers; he raised a family, about whom the writer knows but little ; one daughter married James Sanderson, who has been dead for years ; his widow still lives, and. has raised her family respectably, and is said to be doing well; she has two sons grown; one daughter married Hugh Price, a prosperous citizen in that neighborhood ; he has a family, about whom the writer knows nothing. Another daughter married Frank Huggins ; he and she have both left the country, and their whereabouts unknown. If Bennett Perritt had any sons, it is unknown to the writer. Jesse Perritt, another son of old David, the writer has not been able to get anything concerning him ; whom he married and whether he had any family or not, is unascertainable ; it is said that he is dead. Another son of old David Perritt is our very worthy fellow-citizen, John E. Perritt ; he married, first, a Miss Campbell, a' daughter of the late Wm. S. Campbell, and raised a large and respectable family, mostly daughters, and two sons, A. J. A. Perritt and Arvington Perritt. A. J. A. Perritt moved to Darlington County some years ago, and since he has been there has held several positions of honor and trust, to wit : County Superintendent of Education, Representative in the State Legislature and a member of the State Constitutional Convention, all of which positions he has filled with credit to himself and satistory to his constituents ; he married a daughter of the late Rev. John W. Murray, of the South Carolina Conference of the Methodist Church, South. Arvington Perritt left the county a single man and went to Texas ; nothing further is known of him. Of John E. Perritt's daughters, one married our excellent fellow-citizen, Jerry Lambert; another married W. C. Bracy, of Dillon ; another married a Mr. Keith ; another married a Mr. Smith, below Marion, think a son of Reddin W. Smith. I think there is another one or two daughters, whether married or not, is not known. Asa Perritt, the youngest son of old David, was a Lieutenant in Captain S. A. Durham's company in the late war; he married a daughter of the late Rev. David Edwards, and removed West not long after the war ; nothing further is known of him.
...
Thus it seems that the very large family of Perritts and their many connections of the present day, and now in the county, sprang from old David Perritt, on or near the Ten Mile Bay; he was an energetic and persevering man, exceedingly frugal and thoughtful; would not be in debt, paid as he went, and made a good property by saving it; was a good and law-abiding citizen; he lost his wife in his old age; married some one, name not remembered, and left her a widow ; I think she drew a pension after his death for his services in the War of 1812—I think he drew it in his lifetime. Few men anywhere have a larger connection than he has from himself. They and the Perritt connections are numerous, and are an honest, well-meaning people ; ambitious only to live honestly and to let others live, and are primitive in their modes of life. ;
