Hello Charlotte, First of all, I NEED to verify whether or not I'm on the right track.... I am reasonably certain that John William Parks was my great grandfather but I need to find a way to verify that. Dou you know any living descendants of these that would have any information or know where I might find a family bible that would show a marriage for him?? I think he may have married twice but I'm not positive... Thank you for answering and I do hope it turns out we are cousins... Paulette Williams I hear ethereal whispers persuasive,soft and still, "Daughter,if you don't remember us,who will?"
