I am trying to trace our history and hit a road block. Does anyone know any history on William Francis (or Frances) Parker who was married at least twice. First to an unknown woman to me who passed but left him with daughters in Illinois (I think). Then a second marriage to Mary Ann Flowers Hester. They had many children, mostly in Texas, including my great grandfather George. (more details in my profile)
Thanks

William Francis Parker was my Great Great Grandfather born Jan 12, 1833 in White County Illinois. His father was Jacob Tucker Parker and mother Margraret Dockery. George Washington Parker being may Great Grandfather as well. Before marrying Mary Ann Flowers he was married to Sarah Ann Runnells (born about 1824 and died after 1870). They had two daughters; Mary Isabelle Parker (born Dec 1866) and Eva Parker (born 1869). I have more information on this line all of which comes from a family tree history that my father put together which I'm happy to share with you.
Best Regards,
