Just yesterday, I was visiting my mother, discussing and going over tons of information regarding our family genealogy. For many years now, my mother has been the family historian, but for the past few years is unable to do it any more. At the very young age of 69, she is now bed ridden and in poor health. She did however leave me lots and lots of records to go through, and a huge amount of studying left to be done. This is some of the immediate information that I have.
Mother: Linda Lee Connel Lyttle, b. 24 Feb 1945 - Living, born in Altus, Jackson County, OK, USA.
Grandmother: Iris Nataline Hatton Connel, b. 02 Nov 1914 - d. 06 Jul 1984, born in Elmer, Jackson County, OK, USA, and died in Ada, Pontotoc County, OK, USA. Burial at Hess Cemetery, Hess, Jackson County, OK, USA.
Great-Grandmother: Lettie Texana Elizabeth Inez Parker Hatton, b. 11 Feb 1882 - d. 03 Apr 1969, born in Brownsboro, Henderson County, TX, USA, and died in Elmer, Jackson County, OK, USA. Burial at Hess Cemetery, Hess, Jackson County, OK, USA.
Great-Great-Grandfather: Green Lafayette Parker, b. 24 Apr 1845 - d. 19 Sep 1920, born in Centre, Cherokee County, AL, USA, and died in Brownsboro, Henderson County, TX, USA. Burial at Leagueville Cemetery, Murchison, Henderson County, TX, USA.
Great-Great-Great-Grandfather: David Augustus Parker, b. 1794 - d. 21 Dec 1865, born in North Carolina, USA, and died in Louisiana, USA. Burial at Chalmette National Cemetery, Chalmette, St. Bernard Parish, LA, USA.
For the most part, I have copies of documentation that I have gathered from my mothers files and online research, and I also have my Great-Grandmothers family bible.
Happy researching everyone,
Marta

I'll have to take a much more involved look at the DNA link. No one that I know has been tested. I'll also check the secure data base once I'm approved.
Thanks!!

Marta,
Did you hear that? Those are the bells and whistles that went off when I read your March 17, 2014 at 11:25pm post about visiting your mother and about "Great-Great-Grandfather: Green Lafayette Parker, b. 24 Apr 1845 - d. 19 Sep 1920, born in Centre, Cherokee County, AL, USA"
First, our best wishes to your Mom. She will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Next, has the DNA in your PARKER branch been tested? A male PARKER cousin of ours took the DNA test last December, and the results placed our PARKERs in the PARKER Family DNA Project Family #41
http://web.utk.edu/~corn/parkerdna/park5.htm#FG41
This PARKER Family #41 went through Cherokee County, ALABAMA the first half of the 1800s. Here is what we have collected for the open web

And here is our secure family tree database.

Please let us know if you think we might be swinging through the same tree.
