Helen Yes this is the Parker family that I am talking about. I was born & raised in Limestone Co. TX. where the Indians killed the Parkers & captured Cynthia Ann. My Lindley/Sadler family came to TX in 1833 also from Shelby/Coles Co. ILL. I am trying to find out if my 3rd G Grand Father Joseph Ferguson is the Joe Ferguson who is said to have led the Parker Train to TX. Pat Oates in TX.
