    2. Shirley Pierce
    3. Parker, Frost, Slaughter John B. Parker b. 1822 in Tn. moved to Illinois and then to Tx in 1837 settled at Ft. Houston Tx, and later Anderson Co. Tx.. Ft Houston, is where the Parkers and other families, went to, after the Indian Raid at Ft. Parker, in 1836. I believe my Parkers are kin to the Elder John Parker, but have not made the connection yet. John B. Parker married Sarah Jane Frost in 1847 in Anderson Co. Tx.. Sarah Jane is the daughter of Samuel Frost, who was killed at Ft. Parker, along with Elder John Parker, his sons and several other people. Her brother Robert B. Frost was also killed that day. John and Sarah moved to Limestone Co. before 1855. Living in the household of John and Sarah Parker, was Ransom Parker b. 1848 in Anderson, Co. Tx. Emma Parker, b. 1855, Limestone Co. William Parker b. 1866 Tx. and 3 brothers, last name Slaughter. William b. 1844 in Houston Co. Tx. John b. 1846, Anderson Co., and Joseph b. 1848, Anderson Co. The Slaughter childrens father was, George Slaughter, mother unknown, George died and left the children in the care of John and Sarah Parker, and I believe the children lived with John and Sarah until adulthood. I found a John Slaughter living in Personville, Limestone Co. Tx. but do not know if he is the same one that I am looking for. John and Sarah also lived in Eutaw, Springfield, and outside of Waco. John and Sarah died in Jan. 1879, within 5days of each other. Do not know where they are buried. I have check all the online cemeteries in Limestone Co., but have found nothing.
