Matt I am interested in any information on John or William Waters, Job Parsley or any families connected with these names. My grandmother Mary Waters married James Cook in 1894 in Ripley County.She was the daughter of John Waters who was deceased at that time and married at the home of William Waters. She had half brothers named Parsley, who later married into the Gettings family. Any help would be appreciated. Penny W505050@aol.com wrote: In a message dated 6/3/05 9:40:57 A.M.
