Howdy, still working on my Parker family tree.

Nash County, NC Parkers

My wife is a Parker and I'm trying to gather as much info as I can on her maternal side. Her Parker line seems to be pretty prominate in Nash Co. I have an Ancestry account but some of the names, dates etc. are confusing. Hoping someone here has done solid research on the line including; Parker, Batts, Bottoms surnames.

Sincerely
