They both might have been previously married. Catharine was born in VA 1819 - 1822. She had connections with a R.W. Roper (probably Randell/Randol W. Roper also born VA about 1803). She may have been married for a very short time to a Ridley Walker. I was told when I was a little girl by my uncle that Jesse descended from Claiborn Parr of SC. Catharines last child was born about 1862 in Pickens Co, AL. Both Jesse and Catharine died during the Civil War time era according to the census. The older children took care of the younger children in Pickens County, AL till the older children started families of their own. By the 1900 census some of the Parr family moved to Fayette Co., AL... Then in about 1912 some moved on to Marion Co., AL..... In the late 1930's to the 1950's alot of this Parr family left Alabama. Some descendents returned but alot are still wandering......
