PARKER Family Group 5

   P01 and P32 match on 35 of 37 markers. The oldest ancestor of P01 is Robert
 PARKER, b abt 1630 in England, and emigrated to Plymouth Colony MA. Robert 
PARKER married first Sarah JAMES, and second, Patience COBB. The oldest ancestor 
of P32 is John PARKER, b 1760-70. The DNA test has made it possible for P32 to 
determine his relationship to the line of P01.

   P41 was added to this group on 25 March 2005. He matches P32 35/37, and P01 
34/37.  P41 is descended from Daniel PARKER, son of Elder John PARKER, who was 
born 1758 in Baltimore Co. Md, and died 1836 in Fort Parker, Texas. This is the 
line of Cynthia PARKER, mother of Quanah PARKER. This match was unexpected by 
both PARKER lines, and his given them new areas for research. 

   P45 was added to this family group on 30 May 2005. He is descended from 
Benjamin PARKER, son of Elder John PARKER. Benjamin is the brother of Daniel 
PARKER, ancestor of P41. With matching DNA samples from descendents of two 
different sons of elder John PARKER, b 1758 Baltimore, MD, we are confident 
that we have the DNA profile of this line. Anyone with a family oral tradition 
of descent from Elder John and the line of Cynthia PARKER, can now confirm or
 disprove that by comparing their DNA to P41 and P45. 

    P67 was added to this group on 29 October 2005, following receipt of his 
DNA results. He matches P32 and P45 on 23 of 25 markers. His oldest ancestor is 
Robert PARKER of Barnstable, Mass. and his second wife, Patience COBB. He had 
been exchanging information with P01 about their lineage prior to the DNA test.

   P72 was added to this group on 13 Dec 2005 following receipt of his DNA test
 results. He matches the mode for this group on 31 of 32 markers. DNA testing has
 resulted in a revision of the genealogy of P72 (and many more PARKERs). It now
 appears that P72 does not descend from John PARKER, 1569 Southhampton, England. 
His oldest confirmed PARKER is now George PARKER, born 1695-1770, who married 
Sarah WARRINGTON.

   P97 was added to Parker Family group 5 on 17 May 2006. He matches the modal 
values for this group on 25 of 25 markers. His oldest confirmed ancestor is George
 PARKER who died in Worcester (now Wicomico) County, Maryland in 1770. He wife was
 Sarah WARRINGTON. As is the case for P72, P97 also thought that his line of 
descent was from John PARKER, 1569, Southhampton England, prior to the DNA test. 
It is now apparent that there were at least two unrelated PARKER lines in the 
Eastern Shore area in the early 1700's. And of course they used the same given 
names in both lines, making separation difficult.

   P107 was added to this group on 8 July 2006. He matches the modal values for
 Family Group 5 on all 37 markers tested. The oldest ancestor of P107 is George
 PARKER born about 1695-1705, place unknown. He died in 1770 in Worcester Co., MD.
 George married Sarah WARRINGTON after February 1726 in Worcester Co., MD. 
Sarah was born about 1704 in Cedar Creek Hundred, Sussex County, DE, and 
died after 1770 in Worcester Co., MD. 

   P112 was added to Parker Family 5 on 5 August 2006. He matches the modal 
values for this group on 35 of 37 markers. His oldest ancestor is Samuel Parker,
 born 1765 in Worcestor County Maryland, died 1840 in Red Level, Alabama. Samuel 
married Mary "Polly" (last name unknown). Mary died in Red Level, Alabama in 1861.

   P111 was added to this grop on 29 October 2006. He matches the modal values for
 this group on all markers tested.
 
   P144 was added to this group on 6 March 2007. He matches the modal haplotype on
 all markers compared.
 
   P145 was added to this group on 6 March 2007. He descends from Elisha PARKER, 
born about 1630 in England.  Elisha married Elizabeth HINCKLEY. He died either in 
Barnstable MA, or vicinity of Perth Amboy NJ. The connection to Barnstable MA, makes
 it very likely that Elisha was closely related to Robert PARKER of Barnstable, the ancestor of P01.
 
   P156 received his DNA results on 15 Aug 2007. He matches the modal values for 
Family Group 5 on 25 of 25 markers. He descends from Sammuel Parker, born 1765 in
 Worcester County, Maryland, died 1840 in Alabama. Samuel married Mary PARKER,
 daughter of John PARKER and Sarah GORDY of Sussex County, Delaware. P112 also
 descends from this Samuel PARKER. 

    P01 has results for detailed haplogroup testing that places him in haplogroup 
R1b1c9. By genetic relationship, all of the other PARKERs in Family Group 5 are 
also in this haplogroup.
