Summary
Perry Gatliff was named as a newborn in the August 1961 Beaver Island birth notices.
Evidence and limits
Not the same as Perry J. Gatliff (1929–1982), who was already an adult caring for an orphaned fawn one month earlier, in July 1961 — this newborn cannot be that man. The shared name suggests a namesake relative (nephew or cousin) rather than a duplicate record, but no source read for either article states the relationship directly.
This is a newspaper-only identity record and is not merged with the adult Perry Gatliff record.
