Author: brucejohnson114 Surnames: Parker/Righter/Barrows Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.parker/15901/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I am looking for the first husband of Bertha Ellen Righter. Bertha was born 5 August 1891 in Philadelphia, Pa. & died 30 December 1977 in Superior, Az. Her first marriage, which took place in Phila. about 1911, produced two sons: Lawrence Orval Parker, born 18 May 1913 and Paul Roland Parker, born 9 February 1914; both in Philadelphia. Her Parker husband abandoned the family, either just before or after the birth of the second son. Bertha later married Albert Walter Barrows, born 1884 in Clyde Village, New York and died 27 November 1937 in Bridgeton, N. J. He was buried in Maplewood Cem. in Clyde, N. Y. Would appreciate any help in the identification of her first husband, Mr. Parker. Thanks. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
