I believe the Richard G. Parker that you are seeking was the son of Willard Edwin Parker and Ann Jane Protheroe. He had a sister Violet M Parker, who married Albert Ayers. In 1930, the family is living in Coffey County, Kansas. Richard G. was 14. The census was taken April 2, so he would not be 15 until April 20. In 1920, the family is living in Topeka, Shawnee County, Kansas. Richard is 4. The census was taken 5 January 1920. In 1910, Willard E Parker and Ann are living with her widowed father, Richard Protheroe in Coffey County, Kansas. In 1900, Ricard Protheroe is already widowed. He has one child at home, Ann Jane who is 13. He was 35, so I would imagine that she was his only living child. If this is the family, I can supply you with more information. At ancestry.com there is a family tree that traces the Parker family. The Protheroe family came to the U.S.A. from Wales in 1870. They are found on the 1870 Coffey County, Kansas, Census.
