Ethel comfortably wore the hats of both motherhood and businesswoman. Ethel tended the economics of the Perry home, maintaining a thriving garden with enough chickens for the extended Perry family to eat stewed, boiled, or fried. Outside the home, she marketed her skills as a seamstress. At one point, Ethel took on additional help to meet the demand for her seamstress services when her younger cousin, Amanda Westbrook, moved in to, in part, provide added help.
