Aaron Parker 1770-1833 Elder John's Brother?

An academic study cites that an Arron Parker may have been a kinsman or even a brother of Elder John Parker 1758-1836.

 

Quote: "Other Parkers besides Daniel had expressed interest in the ministry. In 1791 William's Creek Baptist Church in neighboring Wilkes County, Georgia reported Aaron Parker, a kinsman if not a brother of John Parker, as a candidate for the ministry. 16 Before the Parkers departed for Tennessee, the Nail's Creek Church had licensed, but not ordained, John Parker as a preacher."
