This is a small branch that comes from a larger group. Its earliest known ancestor is a George Washington Perrett from Mississippi. Although the paper trail ends there, DNA points to a relationship to other Parrotts/Perritts from South Carolina. The family lore is that the founding members were 4 brothers who came from France to fight in the Revolutionary War. How this branch fits in with the bigger family is still unknown. This branch has been reconstructed by Nanci Green. !
