I don't know specifically about the deaths and burials of Hiram or Elizabeth Parker, but I am researching the Vandermark family, two of whose daughters (M. Caroline and Maria C.) married Levi and James Parker of Avon, Lake County. I am not sure of the relationship, but they may be brothers or cousins of Hiram. James died in Lake County, but Levi moved to Cerro Gordo County, IA before 1860 and later to Otter Tail County, MN. I don't know if any other Parkers moved with Levi to IA, but I did notice on a trip to Mason City, IA that there were a lot of Parker stones in the cemetery I visited. I didn't have time to check any of them, and the names would not have meant anything to me. If you cannot find cemetery records for Hiram or Elizabeth in Lake County, you might want to try Cerro Gordo County, IA. Do you know if they moved to WA or if any of their children moved to other states?
