PERKINS

I am searching for any information on Levi & Hopy PERKINS. From a letter written 15 Aug 1854, McMinn County Levi states his birth as 21 June 1782 and Hopy's as 31 May 1782. He also states that "we make our home at James SLOOPS". It is said that they had 10 children, but from the letter I am only able to ascertain 5, possibly 6 children. Levi says his children are scattered everywhere. Their names are Vina, Jane, Becca, Ute, and Anna LINEBARGER...and possibly one more in GA. Levi states that Ute is teaching in Brackett town, wherever that is. I found a Levi PERKINS in White county in 1830 and also a land survey dated 27 Apr 1824 to 28 Mar 1828 in the same county. Does anyone have any information on this family?
