The chart shows all known Parkers from this line, starting with three brothers, Moses b 1744, Daniel b. 1750 and John b. 1758 (This is Elder John who was killed at Fort Parker). I'm not sure the three brothers premise is accurate. Haven't studied this family in a long time but my recollection is that Moses is not believed to belong in this line. I found a Martha Parker who was present at the Fort at the time of the raid. She was, according to this chart, born in 1835 so would have been less than a year old. Perhaps 5 months instead of 5 years? Martha was the daughter of James W. Parker (son of Elder John) and Martha Duty. This Martha (also called Patsy) is shown on the chart as marrying (1) N. Cross and (2) N. Crenshaw. No children are shown for her. Not all who were at the Fort were killed or captured. I have a list from an 1889 book INDIAN DEPRADATIONS IN TEXAS by J. W. Wilbarger which shows 31 persons at the Fort or in the nearby fields during the raid. Of these, 5 were killed, two seriously wounded (at least one of these died later). Five were captured and taken by the Commanche.
