Hi Dan, Thanks Dan, That is the same data I found at Romney Library. I am researching PARKER families of HAMPSHIRE Co. I have found references to THOMAS PARKER who lived at North River Mills, GEORGE PARKER 1700--1757 m; ANN MAJORS son Benjamin, and a JOHN PARKER d. 1760 wife; Elizabeth TALIAFERRO, GILES or BOND. John's spouse is proving very illusive. Thomas Parkers Land was referred to as FORT T. PARKER, Johns Land was referred to as FORT JOHN PARKER. GEORGE PARKER and Ann Majors is listed as having one son BENJAMIN m; MARGARET THORNTON. Anyone know if these 3 PARKER's were related???? And does anyone have any verification of the Spouse of JOHN PARKER--was she ELIZABETH TALIAFERRO, BOND or GILES???? I am trying to find if my gggg-grandfather ROBERT PARKER was related to these PARKER's of HAMPSHIRE CO. Was this the same ROBERT PARKER and wife MARY who sold Land to JAMES HIETT of Hamp. Co. in 1794???? (Land was located on Great Cacapon. Witnessed by; John Slane, Wm. Olderton and Elizabeth Parker.) ROBERT PARKER d. 1817, left Will in Allegany Co. MD. naming wife; MARY, children; BENJAMIN, NANCY, MARY MARGARET "POLLY", WILLIAM, ROBERT, Jr. and SARAH. Just found "Polly" in 1850 Census living in Knox Co. Ohio with her 2nd husband Thomas J. Porter. She was married first to FREDERICK SAPP. Any help appreciated ..... Pat Hook in Allegany Co.
