His first two wives names are unknown at this time. Jeremiah PARKER, born: bet. 1790 - 1800, appears in the Copiah Co., MS Census in 1830 with several children and with his unnamed wife, (appearing to be wife # 2,) shown as being born between 1800 - 1810 along with 2 males who appear to be children from another marriage who were born between 1820 - 1825 and a male child and a female child under age 5 yrs who were born between 1825 - 1830, also appearing to be children of a 1st marriage. Jeremiah PARKER, born: 1795 in Maryland, appears in the Smith Co., MS Census in 1850 with my 2nd great grandmother, who now appears to be his 3rd wife, Sarah (Sally) JENNINGS, parents: Bailey JENNINGS and Kitty EARLE, and showing that Sarah (Sally) JENNINGS was born in 1822 in Alabama, (however, my information that was obtained from several different descendants shows her birthdate and location as 1821/1822 in Covington Co., MS. I do not have any information showing her parents, Kitty EARLE and Bailey JENNINGS, having lived in Alabama at all just marrying in Dec 1811 in Christian Co., Kentucky then moving to Caldwell County, Kentucky as did Bailey's parents, Rachel JORDAN and John JENNINGS, Sr., and then into Mississippi to Covington Co., MS and then into Simpson Co., MS; however, Kitty EARLE's father, Samuel EARLE, IV, (Sgt./Rev. War,) born: 1760 in Town Run, Fauquier Co., VA, died: 02 Feb 1845 in Mobile Co., Alabama, so it would certainly have been possible that Sarah "Sally" JENNINGS could have been born in Alabama......would love to clarify........) and Bailey JENNINGS, after Sarah "Sally" JENNINGS died, married 2nd wife, Sally LEA, (maiden name,) (widow of William LEE, son of Needham LEE in Simpson Co., MS.) Continuing with the 1850 Smith County Census for Jeremiah PARKER there were children shown as: Jacob PARKER, born: 1834 Ann PARKER, born: 1842 Mary PARKER, born: 1848 (These are the children that I show for Jeremiah and his 1st wife but, obviously, the dates of birth are much later than the dates for the children shown in the 1830 Census for Copiah County, MS and in 1850 the children from the 1830 Copiah Co., MS would have been adults with the youngest child being 20 years old at the youngest possible age. Of course, it is possible that this is an entirely different Jeremiah PARKER but would give a probable dateline for the birth of the apparent 2nd wife if this is the correct Jeremiah PARKER and, also, offer up possible information for earlier born children from a 1st marriage before two additional marriages with the earliest born child/children from this Census showing to have been born in 1820 as the earliest possible date when my Jeremiah PARKER would have been 25 years old. Then in the 1870 Rankin County, MS Census, my 2nd great grandmother, Sarah "Sally" JENNINGS is shown as having been of the age of 48 years old putting her birthdate in 1821 or 1822 but not indicating according to my information where she was born and showing her in 1870 living in Cato, Rankin County, Mississippi with her children, (who were her natural born children,) who were: (1.) Tabitha PARKER, born: 1852, (Sarah would have been abt. 30 yrs old,) (2.) George Washington PARKER, born: 1852 (3.) Richard T.
