Does your chart include other Parkers from the Fort, or is it limited to the Cynthia line? If others are there, does it list a Martha Parker from the fort? I saw an article once that said there was a Martha Parker age 5? That escaped the fort. But I did not copy the information (source) down and have not found it again.

Hi, I don't know if there are any connections or not but it has been suggested to me in the past that my 2nd great grandfather, Jeremiah "Jerry" PARKER, born: 1795 in Maryland, who shows up as the possible Jeremiah PARKER who married in either 1817 or 1822, can't remember right offhand, in Jefferson County, Mississippi and marrying a Sarah BAZAR. My Jeremiah "Jerry" PARKER was in the 1830 Copiah Co., MS census and there, again, in 1840 with his 2nd wife, my 2nd great grandmother, Sarah "Sally" JENNINGS, born: 1821 in Covington Co., MS, daughter of Kitty EARLE and Bailey JENNINGS. Jerry and Sarah were later in Smith Co., MS and he was desceased by the 1870 Rankin Co., MS census where Sarah, 2nd wife, was head of the household and then the family was later in Simpson County, MS. Bailey JENNINGS and Kitty EARLE married in 1811 in Christian County, Kentucky and both of their families had been from the Richmond and Fauquier County, Virginia area then the JENNINGS family went into South Carolina during the Revolutionary War during which both of their fathers served. Kitty's parents were Samuel EARLE, IV, (RS/Sgt.,) (2nd son of his name,) and Tabitha WILLIAMS. Bailey's parents were John JENNINGS, (RS,) and Rachel JORDAN whom I have never been able to find out anything about. There is a William JORDAN mentioned in connection with the will of John JENNINGS, (RS,) paternal grandmother, Mrs. Ann KELLY JENNINGS, widow of William JENNINGS, Jr., who were the parents of Edward Salley JENNINGS, Sr., who married Sarah MOORE and they were the parents of John JENNINGS. The man was named William JORDAN but I have net ever found out if he is in any way connected to Rachel JORDAN though I would think it high probable. The aforementioned Ann KELLY was the daughter of (Captain) John KELLY, (son of Matthew KELLY & Penelope "Nelly" NORTON,) and Amy DONIPHAN, daughter of (Captain) Alexander DONIPHAN, Sr. and his 1st wife, Am(i)ee/Amy PARTRIDGE. Whether or not my aforementioned 2nd great grandfather, Jeremiah "Jerry" PARKER, was in any way connected to his 2nd wife Sarah "Sally" JENNINGS' family group, I do not yet have any way of knowing. Sincerely, Bellinda Myrick-Barnett -----Original Message----- From: duffer@usa.net To: gc-gateway@rootsweb.com; parker@rootsweb.com Sent: Wed, 10 Jan 2007 6:53 PM Subject: Re: [PARKER] I have a Parker Tree back to 1609 Does your chart include other Parkers from the Fort, or is it limited to the Cynthia line?
