Individual:
Ezemily Booth, the wife of Robert Perry, was the daughter of Mary "Polly" Moss and Reuben Booth. Most of her family settled in Texas. Born in Georgia in 1804, she married Robert Perry in 1820, when she was 16 and he was 33. Their marriage document called her Miss Ezemial G. Booth. Ezemily gave birth to 16 children, including Mary Alzenith Perry, but five died very young. Her two-year-old daughter Eveline was drowned at home, and another two-year-old daughter, Amanda, died of sickness. Ezemily was especially grief-stricken by the unexpected death of her son Oliver, who died of typhoid fever after the Battle of Bull Run, and broke down when his body was returned to the family. Several daughters died of consumption (tuberculosis), most of them quite young. No wonder that when her daughter Laura wanted to stay at the Catholic school at Grand Couteau to become a nun, Ezemily wouldn't hear of it. She said, "A Perry could not stand the religious life, she would die of consumption." She likewise withdrew her daughter Adeline from the Catholic school for health reasons. But her youngest daughter Mary Augusta lived as a nun at Grand Couteau until her death in 1934, when she was almost 90. Ezemily herself succumbed to Abbeville's yellow fever epidemic in October 28, 1867. According to Mary Augusta, she was never baptized or christened until her death bed, at the hands of a Catholic priest.
