I think now after reading about Thomas Parker that I am becoming confused, too. Here is what other submitters shared with me some years ago for my ancestors: Descendants of Richard Parker, Sr. 1 Richard Parker, Sr. b: 29 November 1630 in Warleggan, Cornwall, England d: 16 April 1683 in Nansemond County, VA +Elizabeth Bailey d: in Nansemond County, VA 2 Thomas Parker, Sr. b: Abt. 1660 d: Abt. 1717 in Chowan Co., NC +Jean Early m: Aft. 1680 (d/o William Early & Eleanor Williams) 3 Joseph Parker 3 Sarah Parker 3 Francis Parker 3 James Parker 3 John Parker 3 William Parker 3 Thomas Parker, Jr. d: Abt. 1762 in Bertie Co., NC +Martha Boon/Boone *2nd Wife of Thomas Parker, Jr.: +Hannah 2 Richard Parker, Jr. 2 Francis Parker I descend from Thomas Jr. and I would be interested in knowing more about these Parkers as you can see I haven't done very much on these descendants. Thanks, Helen in California
