- Parker - Ellis Family History
- An assault charge against a Frederick Parker (Image 1 and Image 2).. An Ellis descendant, genealogist. Parker line follower and “pointer outer” of the Hiram doc page 13 Minuteman info, has identified a number of the witnesses in this doc as later moving to the Waverly, NY area, where Fred's family later moved. A History Channel program I saw a while back mentioned how prominent violence was in early America. Perhaps Fred's altercation was minor in those days. Or maybe the charge had something to do with the reason Fred seems to disappear into the fog of history with no further record and never makes it to Waverly with the rest of the Washington County to Waverly migration.
The family seemed to work in law and government some back then who were lawyers and judges. I found one site (see my notes below) that shows Parkers being active in law and government in Washington County, NY around the 1830s. I’m not sure if there is a relation.
“Here are references to Parkers in the legal and law enforcement profession in Whitehall New York in the 1830s. This document is dealing with one of the Green Mountain Boys, who served under Elisha(ma) Tozer (whose daughter Married Fred Parker), regarding a Revolutionary War pension. Since our Parker line has long been involved in politics, could our Frederick have been related to these Whitehall Parkers?
