  • Mathew Arnold PARKER, judge, was my direct ancestor. Son of Jesse PARKER who died in 1849. Elizabeth PARKER remarried a BARKER. How do you get the YDNA PARKER 2017 update. Sincerely, Steven C Kratz.
    • Hey Steven,
      I just checked the Parker DNA Project at this link https://www.familytreedna.com/public/parker?iframe=yresults
      It in not being updated at all and I and other have repleted ask Dennis West when was he going to update this website but he has not updated it. He said he has been sick, so I told him I could help but he never replied to my offered.

      I am getting updates only on FG#7 only when we have a new match and I can't release the information to the public because I had to signed the DNA contract agreement BUT I am thinking real real hard about what I can do!!!!!!!!!!! BECAUSE It is not fair to researcher like your self.

  • hello, Wayne - if you are interested in data on the Benjamin Parker(s) named in your post above, I have copies of those certificates to send you for your files. If you want the several I have found over the years, please email me at jandpparker@msn.com with your USPostal address and I will mail them out to you. Also, the "Louwndes" terms found above are actually "Townships" on the originals. The penmanship is very misleading.

    Your partner in genealogy, Patricia Ross Parker
    • Thanks Patricia,
      I will be looking forward to receiving the copies.

      Your partner in genealogy,

      Wayne
  • UPDATE: Moses L. Parker is listed as being in TX with his family on Jan. 30, 1836. This is the reason I couldn't find then in MS
