This is the US branch of an old family from Laugharne, Wales, many of whom are now in Australia. A few are in South Africa. The US branch arrived in 1899 and has remained very small. Its patriarch arrived in the US on 22 Oct 1899 and settled in New Jersey.

This family might be related to the Pembrokeshire Perrotts, who also had a branch in Laugharne. However, it has not been possible to find any documentation that would connect the lineages. It's earliest known ancestor is Walter Perrott, b ~1690 » James » Walter » George Hitchings » Walter
