I've been searching for Elisha Perry, too--for nearly 10 years. Had originally thought him to be the son of Joseph Perry, but Joseph's son Elisha was old enough in 1800 to be the executor of Joseph's will and estate (see references below). Our Elisha would have been only 10 years old in 1800.

I've wondered if Joseph's son Elisha could have had a son named Elisha.

Any other clues will be welcomed!

Will of Joseph Perry, Perq. Co., May 24, 1800, pr. Feb. Term 1801. Dau. Hannah Ellison; granddaus.: Elizabeth Banes, Esther Leabute dau. of dau. Hannah Ellison; dau. Susanna Baker; son Elisha Perry, executor. Wits.: Benj. Perry, Thos. Twine. [Hathaway].

Account of sales on the estate of Joseph Perry by Elisha Perry, Executor, Dec. 12, 1800. Nov. Term 1801, Seth Riddick, Willis Riddick, Thomas Twine and Jesse White appointed to audit the accounts of Elisha Perry as executor of Joseph Perry, dec’d, and to divide the estate of Joseph Perry agreeable to will. Division of Estate to heirs: Elisha Perry, Hannah Ellison, Susanna Baker, Jan. 4, 1802. [Perq. Co., Records of Estates, NC Archives Coll. # C.R.077.508.85].
