Hi, I am looking for any information about the family of John and Mary Parkinson. They were born in England in 1834 and came to US around 1868. For a time they lived in Hazleton and Stockton. Their son John William Parkinson born England 1863 was listed on 1920 census for Leviston Village in Carbon Co. I can not find any other information on this family. I really would like to know when and where the older Parkinsons died. And what happened to John and family? Thank you, Joan

I can't find them in 1870 in any state. I think this is them in 1880: Household Record 1880 United States Census Name Relation Marital Status Gender Race Age Birthplace Occupation Father's Birthplace Mother's Birthplace John PARKINSON Self M Male W 45 ENG Coal Miner ENG ENG Mary PARKINSON Wife M Female W 43 ENG Housekeeping ENG ENG John W.
