It's possible some of Jonathan's children took off somewhere but where? We don't even know some of their exact ages. Born before census and die before the 1850 census with unk burials. There is a Parker family Cemetery in Wilkes and was told many have rocks for headstones. The only thing I would advise is for you to check the Parker DNA project at Family Tree DNA to see if any living direct male line descendants of your Parker line Y-DNA tested. If not try to find a male in direct line with your patriarch and see if they will test. http://web.utk.edu/~corn/parkerdna/ Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
