- Buried Hensley Cemetery, Needmore Road, near Webbville, Law. Co., KY
d/o James H. HENSLEY and Jane GRIFFITH
Note: Before marrying Benjamin Wright, Perlina had a daughter named Lila LEE. Her father is supposed to be a Dr. LEE. Nothing further is known about him.
Perlina is described as a little woman who wore her hair piled on top of her head. She was feisty and resourceful, sweet and tender-hearted. She cried easily and couldn't stand her children mistreated. Once she ran away from home with her clothes tied in a bandana because her children had been abused. Boys used to tease her by hiding the eggs from her chicken coop in the ground. After her husband Ben went off she supported her family by working in other people's houses or selling moonshine whiskey.
