Hello All- I'm looking for information regarding my gggrandfather, David Parker, b. 1805 (per US census) probably in NY, but sometimes listed as Vt. He was married to Polly (probably Mary) Whitcomb, b. 1808 in Vt. They are listed in Dorset, Bennington County 1840 & 1850 US census. They had six children: Helen, b. 1831, Mariah, b. 1832, Rosetta (?), b.1835, , Marcellus Bullard (my ggrandfather), b. 1838 in Rutland, Vt., Mary, b. 1840 and George, b. 1847. David, Polly and Marcellus are listed again in the 1860 US census in St. Anthony, Hennepin Co., MN. Helen was married to John W. McWain by this time, and Mary Esther was married to William Truax. Per Marcellus' obit from 1910, he came with his father to Wisconsin, Trempealeau Co., when he was 16 ( approx. 1854). They were both farmers. They may have lived in Trempealeau for a time until Marcellus, David and Polly settled in St. Anthony. Marcellus eventually migrated back to Trempealeau Co, Caledonia, married Margaret Su! ttie in 1862 and settled in Caledonia, Galesville and Trempealeau until his death in 1910. I have been unable to trace David Parker after the 1860 census. He is not buried in Galesville or Trempealeau and have been unable to find a listing of him in any cemetery in St. Anthony. I would like to trace David Parker to his ancestors and siblings, and learn of the type of farming he might have done in Dorset. Also what religion he practiced and where he might have attended church -(daughters Helen and Mary Esther were Presbyterian). Also, any information on Marcellus' other siblings, Mariah, Rosetta, and George, would be very helpful. Thanks for any help, Susan Parker Gruwell, Toledo, OH
