Note: He had his house burn. The only two items were saved from the conflagration...a cup and his father's (Mason Perry) glass eye. Both are in the possession of Sue Farmer. Verbal history has Asa and his brothers growing up on the "river". This appears to have been a branch or tributary to the Red River. William and Henry could not swim. A huge tree, felled by natural causes, at one time was positioned across this stream and used as a bridge. It was known as the "foot tree".
