Individual Details

Although the records found do not prove that the wife of NICHOLAS PERKINS was SARAH CHILDERS, nevertheless the evidence clearly indicates that she was. She was probably the daughter of Abram Childers who was born about 1630 in England and died in Virginia prior to 1649, leaving a daughter, a son Philemon Childers, a son Abraham Childers, and another son. The fact that SARAH, the wife of NICHOLAS PERKINS, named a son Abraham and another son Philemon certainly indicates that she was SARAH CHILDERS.
