I have just traced my PARR connections back to the birth of JOHN PARR in 1845 in Exning, Suffolk, England. John's parents were probably George PARR and Kezia ASHBY of Exning. George & Kezia were married in 1840, had 8 children who survived, born between 1842 and 1862. George's parents were either Ellory PARR & Elizabeth FULLER or John PARR and Mary COCK. Kezia was the daughter of James ASHBY and Elizabeth HAMMOND, who married in 1818. John PARR, born 1845, married Susannah Elizabeth GIBSON in 1881. They had 3 children: George W, born 1881, Elizabeth May, born 1884, and another son. John and Susannah immigrated to US in 1886, and settled in Rochester, NY. Their children, Elizabeth and George, married into the family of Samuel JOHNSON.

I live in Exning and can send you some pictures and history on the village. ----- Original Message ----- From: <rutha29@hotmail.com> To: <PARR-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, August 11, 2001 1:38 PM Subject: [PARR] PARR, ASHBY, BEETON, FULLER, HAMMOND, GIBSON of Exning, Suffolk UK & PARR & JOHNSON NY USA > > > I have just traced my PARR connections back to the birth of > JOHN PARR in 1845 in Exning, Suffolk, England. > > John's parents were probably George PARR and > Kezia ASHBY of Exning.
