Isaac lived in Ipswich, Massachusetts and he likely died there. The date of Isaac's death is unknown, but Alice Perkins was recorded as a widow on a deed dated 15 Jun 1639:
Alice Perkins, widow of Isaac Perkins, deceased, sold to Joseph Morse, house and land formally belonging to her said husband, lying above Brook Street, bounded by a highway, John Webster, Thomas Treadwell (granted to John Fawn), 15:4:1639.''The Essex Antiquarian, Vol. 8, p. 2''. Accessed online at [https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015030567161;view=1up;seq=14 HathiTrust]: Ipswich Court Records and Files.

Isaac may be buried in an unmarked grave at the Old Burying Ground, Ipswich, Essex County, Massachusetts.[https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/113255095 Find A Grave], database and images: accessed 29 Nov 2018, Isaac “Issache” Perkins, Sr. (1571–1639), Memorial #113255095, citing Old Burying Ground, Ipswich, Essex Co., MA, USA: b.in Rugby, Warwickshire d.Ipswich MA (Unsourced).

==Research Notes==There is no primary source for a birth or bap. date and/or parent for Abraham Perkins. Many assume that Isaac Perkins is his father. Mortensen says that Abraham was born about 1603 and is the son of Isaac and Alice #1. Find A Grave has Abraham's DOB as 28 Jan 1608, so Alice #2 (or an unknown wife) is thought to be his mother. Other sources assert Abraham was born after 1603, as late as 1613. See the research notes section in [[Perkins-526|Abraham's]] profile for details.
10 of Isaac's 11 children are listed in the Ancestry of Walter Goodwin Davis, Abraham is the only child missing from the list.
