Perry as Described in 1939 [1]
The City of Perry, seat of Taylor County, is an industrial town built around a courthouse square. Towering stacks of freshly milled pine and cypress surround the large sawmills along the railroad sidings. In addition to softwood lumber, the mills produce barrel staves, flooring, and hardwood dimension stock for northern manufacturers. The town was known as Rosehead when the first post office was established in 1869.
