Sharon: I believe there may be some confusion. Littleberry Parker and Starling Parker are from two different sets of Parkers. I am descended from Starling Parker through my grandmother (Taylor and Madison Counties), and Littleberry Parker through my grandfather (Suwannee and Lafayette Counties). Littleberry Parker is related to your John Parker through his daughter's marriage to Solomon Sullivan. Solomon's sister Civility married one of your Parkers. I believe Starling Parker to be related to John Parker as either father or brother. I have found nothing to indicate relation to Littleberry Parker (which is not to say he wasn't, I just haven't found it). Littleberry Parker's ancestry is as follows: Littleberry Parker, s/o William Hall Parker, RS and Nancy Walker no other info on William Hall Parker's parentage WHP is originally from Colleton SC, as are Isham and Littleberry Walker WHP settled in Liberty/Long counties GA, and is buried at Jones Creek Baptist Church. Nancy Walker is the d/o Littleberry Walker and Mary Ann Wilson Littleberry Walker, s/o Isham Walker, RS and Mary Carter, of the Virginia Carters (Shirley Plantation, etc.) Littleberry Walker first settled in Columbia County around 1826, and is buried at Smart Cemetary (now demolished). Littleberry Parker was the first Sheriff of Suwannee County after it was carved out of Columbia County in 1858. He died after having served a very short time in office (I think about two months). His son William G. Parker took over his duties as Sheriff and served as executor of his estate. Of his four sons, three were killed in the Civil War in the service of the CSA. The fourth, Richard, has not been mentioned since his marriage to Georgia Ann English in Gadsden Co. in 1851. I believe they had a daughter, Mary Jane, who is my gggrandmother (m. John Hewitt 1871). Others believe Mary Jane is the (possibly illegitimate) daughter of Littleberry Parker. She was born in 1854, and was raised by Nancy Jane Parker (Littleberry's daughter). I believe Richard and Georgia Ann died (family lore says MJ was an orphan), but I have no way to prove anything. If anyone has any info on this, please, PLEASE let me know! Whew. Talk about rambling.

Whew. Talk about rambling. I sure hope I didn't confuse anybody.< Wow Marsha! That was a lot of good info! So we are dealing with 3 Parker lines here then [at least]. Thank you very much. Sharon

Hi Marsha, I apologize for busting in on your thread but I am amazed at the lineage you are discussing. I am descended from the Littleberry Walker of Jefferson County, son of Joel Walker also of Colleton Co. SC. The administrator of Joel's estate in Jefferson Co. was Littleberry Parker of Jefferson Co. also (I believe) of Colleton Co. I realize they are of different families and that both families liked the name Littleberry. It's too bad that most of the Colleton records were destroyed by fire. I am almost certain the families are related in Colleton but just how I have not been able to determine. Take care and again I apologize, Rick -----Original Message----- From: Marsha Hewitt [mailto:clcmo@hotmail.com] Sent: Friday, August 31, 2001 7:00 PM To: FLSUWANN-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [FLSUWANN] Robinson Sharon: I believe there may be some confusion.

Sharon, Rick, Hi!! Some of those Sullivans and Walkers were USA, not CSA. Amazing how things seem to run in cycles, and so many are researching the same area at once. I have some additional info, contact me.
