An email quote from Ray Parker.

"Our Parkers owned a lot of land and seemed to have moved around at the drop of a hat from place to place in their early days in the U.S. This has created a difficult task for us who delve into Parker Family Genealogy. All of my other families have been much easier than the Parkers from a work standpoint. Getting the Parkers back to C1775 has been an arduous task and there is no way to insure the accuuracy of my document in many areas" . Email from Ray Parker dat 8 November 2001.
