Pergeson name

Posted by jason Pergeson <perg_02@hotmail.com> on Sat, 23 Jun 2007, in response to wonder where, posted by pergeson on Fri, 28 Jan 2005

It has been folk lore that the name Pergeson came from a great great greatgrandfather who came down from Missouri; could not spell, and when signing for a land deed mispelled his last name of ferguson by spelling it PERGESON.
But in researching the name myself, I found it on ship registrys from Ireland in the 1780's.
