    I have info on Peter's parents, 2 other offspring other than Hez and know that there are 4 others out there somewhere.  Polly is a nickname for Mary and her last name is Rhodes.  I don't have any ancestral info on her.  I can provide group sheets or gedcom and use Rootsmagic software.

    No surnamae for Polly Parker. Her husband was Peter Parker. They were parents of Hezekiah Parker, born in New York. Hezekiah married Catherine Mandigo and they had several children. They also moved and ended up by Neillsville WI. Catherine died. A 1880 census from the Neillsville area gave Hezekiah as being 54 and a widower. Edward his son was 30 years with wife Mary L. at 25. Millard 23 years, Edith 6 years, Henry was only 9 months. It also gave Peter Parker Hezekiah's Dad as being born in New York. But it gave Polly being born in Connecticut. The saga goes on........

    I got Polly name off information at the cemetary in Neillsville WI. Hezekiah Parker is burried there and Polly and Peter Parker were listed as his parents. I did also find something where Peter and Polly were born in Massechuetts.
    My husband's family, The Parkers did come from England and also were in New York. He has relatives in Minnesota that are directly related.

    Do you have a surname for Polly? It will help as I search my data base. Many of the NY "Parkers" descended from the MA Bay Parkers some who went to VT, and NH and some on to NY. My branch went from MA to NH, to VT, to MN
