SEYMOUR H. PERKINS, of the business firm of S. H. Perkins & Co., Elkton,
Ky., is a son of Judge B. T. Perkins, Sr., and was born November, 7, 1844,
in Elkton.  He was reared in his native village, which has ever been his
permanent home.  In 1861 he enlisted as a member of Company F., Twenty-
fifth Kentucky Infantry, and in the organization of the company was
elected to the commission of Second Lieutenant.  He shared in the service
of his regiment until shortly after the battle of Shiloh, when, on the
account of loss of health, he resigned his commission and returned home.
After regaining his health sufficiently, he was appointed as Deputy Clerk
of the Circuit and County Court, which position he occupied until 1870,
when he was elected to the office of Clerk of the County Court; re-elected
to the same office in 1874, serving fully eight years or two terms.  He
also served the county as Master Commissioner of the Circuit Court, to
which he was appointed by Judge Rodgers, holding this position for about
twelve years.  He commenced his mercantile career in Elkton, in 1879, and
is now engaged in a prosperous and extensive business, associated with
S. H. Wells and George P. Street.  Mr. Perkins was married in Todd County,
June 6, 1866, to Miss Minerva J. Weathers, daughter of E. W. Weathers,
of Elkton.
