Try working out rather than up or down this line. Connections to the big tree are more likely to be made via marriages of aunts/uncles, cousins, siblings, children, or grandchildren rather than a straight line via a single branch.

The Wikitree home page shows us that so far, there are 20,967,772 profiles on wikitree.com

The Connection Finder shows us that 17,117,520 of those profiles are linked together in a global wikitree. At the bottom of all those profiles there are a handful of relationship anchors like King Henry VIII.

By subtraction that means there there are over 3 million profiles which are NOT yet connected to that global wikitree which are called Unconnected. And they do NOT have the relationship anchors at the bottom of the profile page.

Once you link anyone in your branch (that includes Perriman-42) to one of the 17 million connected profiles, then with the next daily update Perriman-42 will change from Unconnected to Connected to the global Wikitree.

Thomas Perriman-42 had a daughter Ann Perriman-39 who married 12 Aug 1838 in St.Swithins, Walcot, Bath to an Isaac Tayler.

I thought I had found a place where you could link to the global wikitree, but I had to remove that info because it was obviously a mistake where someone even mixed up the different countries, England and USA.

Ann Perriman died, aged 66, in Marshfield ( Chipping Sodbury district ) in 1883. 

Name: Age at Death (in years): 
PERRIMAN, ANN     66  
GRO Reference: 1883  D Quarter in CHIPPING SODBURY  Volume 06A  Page 122
Her married name at death was TAYLER
I thought that looked like a different family, from Walcot, Bath, since they spell their name Perryman. The original post is asking about a Perriman family from Keynsham who moved to  Marshfield. The Ann Perriman who died “Perriman “ as noted above, could be Ann Butcher, the wife of Thomas Perriman jnr, the son of the Thomas in the original post as they turn up in Marshfield too (1871 census) They also have a son called Isaac and a bit of research finds a marriage between Thomas Perriman and Ann Butcher in Walcot St Swithin, Somerset, which ties in with what you said.
I too saw that Ann's brother Thomas married Ann Butcher.
The Isaac who married Ann Perriman seems to have been Tayler. I found a couple of their children also registered as Tayler, and in some censuses too.
Yes TAYLER, thank you for that clarification. I removed my previous father link since it was obviously incorrect data mixing up 2 countries.
