Oh heavenly days... Looks like I am related to Sharon, and to Marsha! Two cousins in one night... This is too much to handle, get my nitroglycren ! Let's see if I can simplify this... One of the children of Civility Parker and Robert Ransom Parker was Temperance Annie Parker who married William Newman Whatley. One of their children was my grandmother Annie Zell Whatley. She married Grover Chapman Johnson and moved to Jacksonville there to have four children (two boys died in childbirth) one of which was my father Bernard Alexander Johnson. Bernard married four times (trying to make up for his brother who never married?), but only one wife (Margaret Royena Miller of Daytona Beach, FL) produced any children. I am the oldest of the children and the oldest son. My sister still lives in Daytona Beach (as does Mom...) while my brother lives in San Fransisco (where he is a chef) and I live in Deltona (happily retired from the entertainment business, so yes I am just a little bit "off center"...). Hey Marsha, if you want the dates or a .txt file report of the descendants from Civility through my grandbaby, let me know. Hey, we gotta have a family reunion! signed: "Dusty" B.

Hi Sharon Solomon Sullivan (married to d/o Littleberry Parker) Civility Sullivan (married to Ransom Parker) and Mary Sullivan (married to Thomas Peter Webb) were siblings. I am related to Mary Ann Parker through Littleberry Parker (she was either sister or aunt to Mary Jane Parker, my gggrandmother), to Ransom Parker through his father (related through Starling Parker/Mary Milton - don't know if he and Starling were brothers, father/son, or some other relation - Ransom was named guardian of Starling's minor children at his death), and Mary Sullivan was my ggggrandmother (descended through son Jeptha Webb, his daughter Annie married my ggrandfather John Hewitt - son of Mary Jane Parker and John Hewitt).

I am looking for information on Richard Parker, son of Littleberry Parker of Suwannee County. Richard married Georgia Ann English in 1851 in Gadsden County, FL. After that, he and Georgia Ann apparently were either abducted by aliens or dropped off the face of the earth, because I can't find them anywhere. Is anyone familiar with those names?<<<< Hi Marsha, In the book I have by Joseph Burval "William Sullivan of Georgia" Solomon Sullivan born April 22, 1838 Lee County, Georgia died September 23, 1920 in O'Brien, Suwannee County, Florida...married 3 times. His first wife was Mary Ann Parker the daughter of Littleberry Parker [1803-1858] & Mary Ann Wilson. I see nothing further listed on Littleberry's family. Don't know if this is of any help or not, but wanted to send it your way. Sure makes me wonder about your earlier thoughts about our Parkers being kin. Parker is the line connected to Sullivan in my tree. As a matter of fact, it was Solomon's sister Civility Sullivan that married my ggg-grandfather Robert Ransom Parker! Sharon

Hi! Looking for my husband's family... 1920 Suwannee County Census, McAlpin Community, Enumerated January 8 & 9, 1920 Family 67 THOMAS, Dave age 37 Sallie (Hamilton) age 30 Leland age 12 Fred age 11 Katie age 9 Vasco age 7 Clifford (female) age 3 1/2 Henry age 1 There are more children including my father in law, David C. Thomas. We are at a dead end as to who Dave T. Thomas parents were. He was adopted by the Thomas' and he had a sister named Katie who was also adopted by the same Thomas family. She married a Padgett. Any light that can be shed on this Thomas (or Hamilton) family will be appreciated. They are buried in Wellburn at the Mt. Beulah Baptist Church. Sincerely, Saundra

Charlene, I am from N. FL. and Valdosta, Ga. but now live in SC, and they are nice to visit in the winter and cooler months. but not summer for me too humid. and believe me we get hot here too. but FL. kills me in the summer even though i still go from time to time .LOL Kay

I did a look up of Parkers in Swannee County the other night in the book Discovering Genealogical Roots there I will send you the e-mail if I still have it, I don't but if you write e-mail address I think I sent too is LDBSK@aol.com her name is Diane and she might can help you. I must have deleted the e-mail I sent I hope i am giving you the right one it won't hurt to try. but you should try the census records they help a lot too if you haven't already. or send for information on Richard and that way it might help Good Luck Kay

I'm not Rick and he may also have this information, but in "Biographical Rosters of Florida's Confederate and Union Soldiers 1861-1865" by Hartman and Coles: First Florida Cavalry, Company E, Privates: Bryan, Benjamin R. (b. 3/21/45 Wayne Co. NC; m. Emma J. Gillyard 12/8/97; d 9/22/1923 Bradford Co.) lived in Bradford Co.and enlisted 11/14/61 in White Spring. He was present on the last roll and was hospitalized in Macon in mid 1864. He returned to duty 10/2/54 and was paroled in Thomasville GA 5/16/65. He was 5'5", light hair, blue eyes, fair skin. From "Register of Florida CSA Pension Applications" by Virgil White #A02478 Bryan, B. R., 1st Reg Cav, Emma (Gillyard), Bradford Co, 1909, 18 pgs. The National Arichives has very little on the confederate soldiers. This information must be obtained from the state where they served or the state where they obtained their pension. You can order both the Service Record and the Pension File from the FL State Archives in Tallahassee for a nominal fee. The information regarding his personal appearance, I believe, appears in the Service Record.
