Hi Patricia, I saw that Ancestry posting about James Burgess Parker being in St Clair County at the time of his death, but it is undocumented. I have emailed the lady who posted it & haven't heard from her yet. I can place the family in Jackson County, Illinois in 1872 for the marriage of daughter Elizabeth & subsequent movement of Elizabeth & her husband Francis Chapman, but still seeking documentation/verification of James Burgess Parker's movement after that.
In the past, I had corresponded with Mr Yarbrough & was sorry to hear of his passing.
Hello, Lynn Colby Galloway - Welcome to Parker Heritage. Ancestry.com public trees include one on your ancestor, James Burgess Parker and wife Helen Mary Pemberton. It shows that James B. Parker was in St. Clair Co., Missouri at his death in 1876, but his burial place was not included. If you have Ancestry.com, you may have some success in locating his burial place.
The census cuts below were originally posted by Jim Yarbrough, a fine researcher and Parker descendant who died in 2011. An unnamed current researcher posted Jim's work for your use.
