Our neighborhood was named in honor of Thomas Perkerson and the Perkerson family, early settlers of DeKalb/Fulton County and Atlanta. We are a neighborhood with lots of hardwood trees and history.
The oldest house in the neighborhood---built around 1865;the original home burned on Sherman's march to the sea-the Civil War or The War Between The States.
