About Quillen

My son, Nicholas Quillen Perry's middle name comes from my granddad, Albert Quillen Perry. Al's obituary is in the middle of this page (search for Perry). He was named after Quillen Shinn, a 19th-century Universalist missionary. Shinn founded Ferry Beach, where my granddad used to go, and near where he and his wife lived at the end of their lives. Their ashes are scattered at Ferry Beach.

So that's Quillen.
