Hi Nancy
Thanks for your offer to help me with my brick wall. My brick wall is where oh where was William F. Parker born, and who were his parents. My brother did the dna test for me, and that is how we added to the Parker Family 5. I still don't know how we connect. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Janelle

Jim

Thanks for the information but dschneider1167 on Ancestry.com is me. What I'm looking for is how William F. Parker ties to Robert Parker...I really don't know where William F. was born, but do know that he married Leney Brasfield in Wilkinson County, MS and that he died in Mississippi.

Thanks
Janelle

I understand what you are seeking. The DNA match with all of the seven different male ancestors named in Family Group 5 means that they have a common ancestor within a specified number of generations backwards.

Your Parker ancestor William F. Parker - married 9-22-1809 - Lenah Brassfield in Wilkinson County, Ms may have records in Florida or Alabama, The Spanish withdrawal in 1798 from Mississippi and the Lousiana Purchase in 1804 had records called something else in those early days. I have now forgotten the term used. I will try and retrace my researh and give you the name of that entity that had early records.

Jim,
Thanks so much for helping me...I would love to go to Wilkinson County, MS courthouse and do personal research, but I live in Indiana...look forward to hearing from you.

OK. The aerea was known as first the Mobile District then later the Orleans District which was taken from Spain. New Orleans has old Spanish land grant records. I am unable to find where I had gotten my records for Aaron Parker (1789-1854) who settled circa 1818 in Mobile District of the Mississippi Territory later Jackson Co MS.

Perhaps that information will give a clue for future research.

I am the other Family Group 5 from MS.   Aaron Parker born ~1770, died 1833.  Married Tabitha Raborn (1772-1856), first found in Mississippi by 1814 in Lawrence and Amite County .

DNA of Elder John Parker makes me question who the Aaron Parker below was?

Deed Book C, page 436 "Deed from State of Tennessee to Aaron Parker, Assignee of John Parker. No. 2865. By virtue of part of Certificate No. 307, dated the 20th day of August 1807, obtained by John Parker, and entered on the 28th day of August 1807, by No. 180, we have granted to Aaron Parker, assignee of John Parker, a tract of land containing 39 acres, and lying on the waters of Parker’s fork of Turnbull Creek. Surveyed the 24th day of September 1808 by John Davis, including his improvement nearly in the center.  

Aaron PARKER,  Daniel Sr, Jr, Ruth, Sary Sr, Jr, Nancy, Moses, 1806 Dickson Co TN Baptist Church. other names John and Hannah PARKER. All names listed are PARKERS. Year of 1806?

Regarding the connection of Nathaniel Parker b. 1730, the long hunter, to Elder John Parker of Ft. Parker, it could be that the relationship is not actually there. (I seek to prove it is there because John's brother Daniel is in my line.) I found the first concrete connection of John and Nathaniel in a doctoral dissertation at Texas Tech. This author was researching Daniel Parker, the son of John, who was a preacher advocating the Two Seed Doctrine. In any event the dissertation reports that Daniel went to Bledsoe Creek, TN, the home of Nathaniel Parker and became the preacher there. The reason given was that he was related to Nathaniel.

Or if you can google "daniel parker" "two seed" and see the link there.

I would appreciate learning about any proof of John having a brother named Daniel.

Also, a website about Moses Parker, Turnbull Church in Dickson County TN, asserts that he obtained a passport from the Georgia govenor in 1804 to accompany his uncle John Parker. I have never found such a document.

Thanks for posting the informaiton and link to the dissertation on Daniel Parker.

Jim, I am looking for information on this Moses Parker b1773 (N.C.) who is my gggggg grandfather. His granddaughter Rebecca H. "Becky" Parker married my gggg grandfather William P.A. Frasher. Specifically who are Moses' parents, and what is the relation to Cynthia Ann Parker? I am new to geneaology and have tried to research through ancestry.com but there is way too much conflicting and confusing misinformation. Many people on there have Nathaniel and Ann Clayton as his parents. I don't see how Moses is nephew of Elder John, but Moses was in the area of the Turnbull Church so it seems plausible he was involved in some way. Please help my confusion!!

I can offer strong evidence that Elder John Parker was not the son of Nathaniel Parker of Hampshire Co., VA/WV and later Sumner Co., TN.

 

The Ohio State Archives holds a typed transcript of a 33-page letter written by Thomas Scott (Call # VFM 2599), one of the first supreme court justices of Ohio, wherein he discusses his family history in great detail. He wrote the letter to his children on 31 Oct 1851 on the occasion of his 79th birthday.

In the letter he relates that he was born at Oldtown, (present) Allegany County, Maryland, on 31 Oct 1772, the son of John Scott and Sarah Chenoweth. Thomas writes of his grandparents Thomas Scott and Susannah Watson and all their descendants known to him. 

On pages 8-9 of the letter, he writes:

"My father's sister Elizabeth, intermarried with Mr. Nathaniel Parker. He owned a beautiful well-kept cultivated farm and mills, two or three miles above the town of Frankfort on Patterson's creek, in Hampshire County, Virginia. He was a man of more than ordinary industry, economy and enterprise, and owned considerable wealth. My aunt had three daughters and seven sons by him, namely, Susannah, Elizabeth and Polly, John, Thomas, Richard, Aaron, Robert[,] Isaac and Nathaniel. Susannah intermarried with Charles Buler. More than sixty years since they removed and settled at Maristick a few miles from Louisville Kentucky. They had several children, but are both now deceased. Neither the names nor the places of their descendants are to me known. Elizabeth intermarried with Col. Michael Collyer [sic] and John with Miss Sally Collier, grand-son and grand-daughter of old Col. Thomas Cresap. These two families many years since removed and settled in Shelby County, Kentucky. After the decease of my aunt, Mr. Parker with the residue of his sons and daughters, their families removed to the state of Tennessee, where he intermarried with the widow of Col. Bledsoe deceased, but report says they did not live happily together."

 

Thomas Scott knew these families and lived near them in his youth, and public records support his statements in other matters regarding family ties mentioned above and throughout the letter. Unless Elder John married Sally Collier and moved to Shelby Co., KY, then he is not the son of Nathaniel Parker of Hampshire Co., VA.

 

Scott also mentions that his father's half-sister Polly Dobson, daughter of William Dobson and his grandmother Susannah (Watson) (Scott) Dobson, married Aaron Parker "by whom she had three sons, William, Thomas, and Nathaniel." Scott also mentions he had not heard from any of the Parkers in "nearly sixty years" except "William Parker who called to see me many years since."
