days. Boone Scholl was the founder of the present town of Perry... Edward Boone Scholl was born
in Clark county, Kentucky, October 11, 1801, the tenth child and seventh son of Peter Scholl and

1811, a daughter of Joseph and Sarah Bentley, the former of whom was proprietor of the pioneer
town of Williamsport, on Sandy Creek opposite Meacham's, now Montezuma."
