It
is very probable that the parents of
Perry A. Parker are
Henry Parker
and
Nancy
Black. Several other researchers have included
this information on their Web pages and in publicly available GEDCOM files. The
1850 census and
1860 census support this
family grouping. Until additional sources are found to prove
the parental link I have not included that generation in this list.

[39] Interview, Eva Parker Carter, 10 May
2003. Eva Parker Carter states Alfred Parker had a half-brother Uncle
Floyd and half-sister Aunt Delavie.
Their mother was Perry Alexander Parker's second wife, she thinks.
This wife was a Siebolt and the Siebolt's
were from Heath which is a town near Dallas, Texas (now appears to be under
Lake Ray Hubbard). Web Site for Henry Parker and Nancy Black Family, online
http://community-1.webtv.net/parkerbp/HENRYPARKERandNANCY/ lists Bertha's
surname as Sparks.
