The following record was found on a piece of paper in a Bible once the property of Sally Ann Cortright Dawson and now in the possession of Mrs. Linwood Stearns, 119 South Hill St., Jackson, Mich. (probably in 1970s or earlier)

A controversy over the surname of Charity, whether Perkins or Young, has circulated a long time. I am not sure this resolves it conclusively since the source is not clear. It is merely a paper stuck in a Bible with no indication of where it came from. JMT
