Purry Family History
Recorded in many forms as shown below, this is a medieval English surname. There are two possible origins. The first is residential for someone who lived by a pear orchard, or more probably one who owned such a place. The name derives from the Olde English pre 7th century word "pirige", meaning pear-tree. Residential surnames were among the earliest created, since both natural and man-made features in the landscape provided easily recognisable distinguishing names in the small communities of the Middle Ages. The second possible origin is Welsh and a patronymic form of the medieval given name "Herry". This is a form of Henry, and when fused with the Welsh patronymic prefix of "ap" produces Ap Herry or Perry...

I'm in the dark about my lineage, and unfortunately I don't have relationships with anyone I can ask about it. All I know is that my grandfather and his mother and father were born and raised in South Georgia, USA .

Our ancestor is James Michael Perry of County Cork. He was born about 1825. He emigrated with his family, to Canada, around 1830. Came south through Vermont, upstate New York, finally settling in Erie county in Northern Ohio. We haven't been able to find any information about his family prior to his move from Ireland to Canada. He married a Bridget Cunningham, she was 10 year his senior. She emigrated at the same time the Perry family did. Her parents were Michael Cunningham and Judith Smyth of Navan, Co. Meath. Our research shows that James Michael's father may have been a Richard or John Perry

(Part 1 of 3) The Perry name has a long history in British Isles, but now DNA and some recorded history says their origin is from the Emerald Island. The Perry story [dominated by DNA tribal marker R1b-L513, Subgroup B2] can trace their origins to the Finn Valley in Donegal, Ireland from 50 BCE. Perhaps the journey begins with the Clanna Dedad; Deda, son of Sen or Deda Mac Sin. The Perry surname origin is from Clan Domnaill [DNA Tribe R1b-L513, Subgroup B1] and relations who remain in Ireland take the modern surname (O’)Donnelly, McDonald and Donohue in Ireland.

(Part 2 of 3) According to research, the Domnaill name is also found in Brittany, France. It is a very old name which appears in the 5th century Roman inscriptions as Dumnovellaunos in Brittany meaning “Deep Valour” equivalent to Irish Domhnaill. But how could this be? Recent discoveries from DNA testing are unlocking the migration patterns of Celtic tribes as late as 800 CE to 1200 CE. The Perry story begins in pre-history Ireland then moves to Wales where the family can be traced back to their Welsh tribe Cydifor Fawr. An ancestor and many of his kin will then move to Brittany, France during the Dark Ages.

(Part 3 of 3) Discover their newly found untold story and how forgotten texts bring their story back to life. From the ebook, “The Tribe Within” learn how DNA unfolds this amazing tale and if you look in the right places, how history narrates this evidence. There is another written account of their story, but it is camouflaged in smoke and myth – it will become the tales of King Arthur.
