John Parker b. 1796 of Bertie m. Esther b. 1805. John's father Luke was b. 1768 (Bertie) m. Anna Pierce. Luke's father was Matthew b. 1732 (Bertie). Matthew's Father James b. 1692 m. Sarah b. 1708. James' father George b. 1666 d. 1747 Macclesfield, Isle of Wight, Va. m. Martha b. 1669. George's father Thomas Parker b. 1629 d. 1685 Macclesfield, Isle of Wight, Va. Thomas' father was also Thomas the Immigrant, b. 1600 or 1603 in England. d. 1663 Isle of Wight, Macclesfield, Va. I am descended from John b. 1796 and Esther's son Isaac's next door neighbor and cousin, James Robert Parker, son of Lemuel Parker. Lemuel and John were contemporaries and may have been brothers. This is part of my own research at this point. Or the two may have been cousins themselves. Would appreciate any input, here. Thanks.
