PARKER Family Group 1

  P04 and P06 match on 24 of 25 markers. They differ by one mutation at DYS 391, 
their 'genetic distance' is 1.  P04 has James PARKER, b 1815, TN, as his oldest
 male PARKER. P06 lives in England, and his oldest confirmed PARKER is William
 PARKER, b 1696, Kirby Hill (Kirby on the Moor), North Yorkshire, England. 
His ancestors were farmers, and remained in that village until after 1900. 
He is searching for PARKERs from his line that emigrated to the colonies before
 1800.

    P20 was added to this family group on 23 Nov 2004 when his DNA results 
were returned. His oldest ancestor is Henry PARKER who was born in South Carolina
 about 1827 and married Nancy BLACK in Milam Co. TX in 1850. The common ancestor 
of P04 and P20 predates their current paper record, but with birth information of
 1815 TN for P04, and 1827 SC for P20, they may be only one or two generations 
from the common ancestor. They had not been in contact prior to the DNA test, 
so this match gives both of them new leads for their research. 

    P37 was added to Parker Family Group #1 on 1 Feb 2005, when his DNA test 
results were complete. His oldest ancestor is Saul PARKER who married Charity 
JENKINS, and was in Northhampton Co., North Carolina. Researchers for this line 
have recently been able to add Amos PARKER, born about 1720, probably in Chowan 
County NC, as the father of Saul PARKER. Amos married Mary FARLEE before 12 
January 1750/51. 

   P17 was added to this group on 4 March 2005. He shares the same ancestors 
as P20, Henry PARKER, b about 1827 SC, who married Nancy BLACK in Milam Co. TX 
in 1850. 

    P31 was added to this group on 12 March 2005. His oldest ancestor is 
Henry PARKER, b 1780 NC, the father of the ancestor of P17.

    P57 was added to this group on 24 Sep 2005 following receipt of his DNA 
results. He matches P04 and P31 on 25 of 25 markers. The oldest ancestor of 
P57 is Samuel PARKER, born 1792 in North Carolina, perhaps Northhamptom County. 
He married Sally BEECHERDATE or BEECHER DATE (one record has BERCHARD). 
Samuel PARKER is a younger brother of Lemuel PARKER, an ancestor of P37. 
Lemuel and Samuel are sons of David PARKER and Elizabeth Andrews HAYS PARKER.

   P63 was added to this group on 3 December 2005. He matches P17 on 36 of 37 
markers. His oldest ancestor is Perry PARKER, born 1856 in Texas and died 1925 
in Dallas County TX. He married Bettie MORRISON in Milam Co. TX in 1878. 
This line suspected that Henry PARKER was the father of Perry, but could 
not find proof to support that relationship. The close match to P17 supports 
the circumstantial evidence that Henry PARKER is the father of Perry PARKER.

   P73 was added to this group on 26 February 2006. He matches P04 on 37 of 37 
markers. 

   P102 was added to this group on 24 April 2006. His oldest ancestor is John
 PARKER, born 1810-20 in North Carolina, and died 1845-46 in Washington Co. 
Georgia. The name of his wife is unknown.

   P119 was added to this group on 7 September 2006. He matches the modal values 
for Family Group 1 on all 37 markers. His oldest ancestor is Lewis PARKER, born
 about 1772 in Barnwell District, Orangeburg Co., South Carolina. Lewis died 
about 1859 in Henry Co. Alabama. He was married twice. The name of his first wife 
is not known, his second wife was Mary. 

   P130 was added to this group on 29 September 2006, he has the modal values 
for this group on all markers tested. His oldest Parker ancestor is John Rhodes
 (Jack) Parker, born 8 October 1808 in North Carolina, county unknown. 
He died on 7 October 1884 in Franklin County, Mississippi. He married Elizabeth
 Carlock on 19 March 1835 in Franklin County, Mississippi. Jack emigrated to 
Amite County, Mississippi, between 1812 and 1820 with his mother, two brothers, 
a sister, and some cousin relatives. 

on 19 March 1835 in Franklin County, Mississippi. Jack emigrated to Amite County, 
Mississippi, between 1812 and 1820 with his mother, two brothers, a sister, 
and some cousin relatives. 

   P149 was added to this group on 15 May 2007. He differs from the modal 
haplotype only at DYS 385a. P149 descends from Thomas PARKER, born about 1705,
 probably in North Carolina. The name of his wife is unknown. His known children 
were Peter, Silas, Joseph, and William.

    P04 has had the additional DNA test to determine his haplogroup. His "SNP" 
test places him in R1a1. By genetic relationship, everyone else in Family Group 1 
is also in haplogroup R1a1.
