Descendants of Lewis ap David of Cardiganshire, Wales

The Parker Families of Southeast Mississippi

The Parker family of North Carolina is important to this research because Louisa Lewis and Cynthia Matilda Lewis married two sons from this family. And, their sister Polly Lewis married Addison Parker who reportedly was at least a second cousin. Thus, William Parker and Jacob B. Parker and Addison Parker are listed in the 1855 Jasper Co MS probate for Walden Lewis.

Parker Family Group 28
Jacob Parker b. 1778 South Carolina

-The oldest ancestor of P240 is Jacob PARKER, born 1778 in South Carolina, died in 1824 in Alabama or Mississippi. He married Lucretia BRADLEY before 1804. She was born in South Carolina in 1784, and died in Jasper County Mississippi in 1852.
-
P244 descends from John H. PARKER, born about 1846 in Jasper County, Mississippi and died in 1870 in Jasper County, MS. He married first Martha Ann SUMRALL, daughter of Drury SUMRALL and Nancy PERRY. John's second wife was Sarah (Sallie) E. LOTT. John H. Parker appears to be the son of John PARKER who was married to Rhoda Ann (unknown). She is listed as his guardian on Jasper County MS. tax list of 1853 after the death of John Parker. 
-
P260 descends from James Bunyon PARKER, b 1837.
-
P272 descends from Addison B. PARKER, born about 1818 in Mississippi. Addison married Mary (Polly) LEWIS, who was born about 1820 in Greene County Mississippi. They descend though Addison's son Little Berry Parker, born abt 1845 in Jasper County, Mississippi and died in 1941 in Franklinton, Louisiana. Current evidence suggests that Addison PARKER is a son of Littleberry Abbington PARKER, born 1798, and that Addison PARKER and Martin PARKER (ancestor of P290) were brothers. 
-
P289 was added to this group in June 2010. He descends from William PARKER, born 1807 in Georgia, and died in 1873 in Trinity County Texas. William married Louisa LEWIS.
-
P290 was added to this group in July 2010. He descends from Littleberry Abington PARKER, born 1798 in North Carolina and (probably) Elizabeth "Betsy" BOUNDS, born 1802 in Tennessee or Mississippi. Littleberry migrated into Wayne County, MS by 1816 along with other Parkers, then into Jones and Jasper Counties. He settled in Washington Co., Alabama in the 1850s and 60s, before returning to Jones Co., MS to homestead there and then in Marion County, MS where he died around 1890. His son Martin Parker, born 1835 in Jasper County, MS, is the great grandfather of P290.

When attempting to trace the Parker family migration history, we can use the migration history of the allied Lewis family. After the conclusion of the Indian Wars in Georgia and the lands which would become Alabama and Mississippi, the Lewis family migrated down the Three-Chopped Way from the frontier of Georgia through the Creek Nation to the American settlement north of Spanish Mobile where they settled on the Chickasawhay River in what was Greene Co, Mississippi Territory.

John Lewis Senr. (2)
Tavner Lewis (2)
Walden Lewis (2)
Note: A letter dated 2/21/1969 from the Secretary of State of Georgia states that Walden Lewis of Greene Co GA received 2 draws, both blank.

From the many Mississippi censuses, the preponderance of evidence indicates that the greater Parker family of Southeast Mississippi originated in North Carolina. Potential progenitors were enumerated in the 1816 Mississippi Territorial Census.

The Jacob Parker Line

    x. Purported Ancestor: Thomas Parker b. 1754 in North Carolina

    1. P240 Jacob Parker

"The oldest ancestor of P240 is Jacob PARKER, born 1778 in South Carolina, died in 1824 in Alabama or Mississippi. He married Lucretia BRADLEY before 1804. She was born in South Carolina in 1784, and died in Jasper County Mississippi in 1852."

The Jacob Parker family originated in North Carolina. From the birth records of Jacob's children, we learn that Jacob migrated from North Carolina to Georgia by 1802. Jacob next appears in the 1816 Wayne Co, Mississippi Territorial Census. The Walden Lewis family lived in Morgan Co GA. Did the Parker family encounter the Lewis family in Georgia or along the Three-Chopped Way en route to Mississippi?

Jacob Parker is not found in the 1820 Census; as he had migrated to what would become Wilcox Co AL. Did Jacob return to Mississippi? Reportedly, he died 6/6/1824 in Wayne Co MS. But, Lucretia continued to husband the family in Jacob's place until her death in 1852 in Jasper Co MS.

Further Research:

In 1819, Covington Co. was formed out of a large portion of 1817 Wayne Co, MS & as a consequence, Jacob Parker was shown on the Covington County tax roll of 1819. Wilcox, AL was formed out of Monroe County, AL. & it is believed that when Jacob Parker left Covington, MS, he first located in the area designated as Monroe, AL and was recorded on that 1820 census which was later destroyed or lost. Jacob’s daughter, Elizabeth Parker McDaniel, submitted their family records to LDS in 1890, some 65 years after Jacob’s death. She and her younger brother were born in Wilcox, Al and Elizabeth incorrectly assumed & recorded that all her siblings were born in Wilcox, Al. Apparently, Elizabeth’s mother , Lucretia Bradley, was born in SC & Elizabeth therefore assumed that her Father Jacob was also born in SC. Jacob’s first two children were born 1804 & 1808 in Georgia and the evidence suggests that Jacob met & married Lucretia in abt 1803—possibly in Montgomery County, Ga.

Evidence now supports the supposition that Jacob was born 1778 in Duplin, NC , migrated to Georgia about 1802, from Georgia to Wayne, MS in 1810 & moved from MS in 1819-1820 to Monroe/Wilcox, AL. Jacob’s probable brother, Asa Parker, shown on the 1820 census of Jefferson, GA, also migrated from Georgia to the Monroe/Wilcox area of AL. in about 1822-24. The Monroe, Al obit for Asa Parker, Jr shows he was a resident of Monroe, AL in 1820. Asa, Jr would have been age 16-17 at the time which indicates he possibly joined his Uncle Jacob Parker who moved from MS to Monroe/Wilcox, AL in 1820. Records of Duplin, NC show that Asa Parker, Sr b 1775 & his sibling, Jacob Parker b 1778 were orphans in Duplin, NC and possibly the sons of Thomas Parker, Jr who died in 1788.

Georgia Colonial and Headright Plat Index (1735-1866) vol VV p. 31 #46574:
In 1802 Jacob Parker was issued a headright grant for 75 acres of land in Montgomery Co GA on Rocky Creek.

Lucretia Parker Probate

 

The order of Lucretia Parker's heirs defines the order of birth:

-The extant girls are listed in order.

-The extant boys are listed in order. 1st son William is listed as administrator; per custom as primogenitor.

-Then, Lucretia's deceased heirs and their spouses are listed in order.

Jasper Co MS Court Probate Record (1851-1856) Book B, p 205:

 

2/1853. In the matter of the Estate of Lucretia Parker deceased for sale of land.
On reading and filing the petition of William Parker
[2. William Parker who married Louisa Lewis], Administrator of Lucretia Parker deceased, 
It is ordered by the court that   

1. Mary Chambers and Thomas H. Chambers her husband, 

4. Beedy Grayson and Lee Grayson her husband, 

5. Sarah Davis and Thomas Davis her husband, 

10. Elizabeth McDonald and Henry McDonald [McDaniel] her husband, 

 

6. Levi B. Parker

8. Jacob Parker [who married Cynthia Matilda Lewis], 

9. Thomas Parker

11. John Parker

 

3. the heirs of James D. Parker deceased, 

7. and the heirs of Axey Hargrove Parker, deceased who was the wife of James A. Hargrove

 

be cited to be and appear before this court on the third Monday of May next, uniting then and there to answer said petition and to show cause if any can why the lands, teniments and hereditaments described in said petition should not be sold; and that said petitioners cause said citation to be published in the Whig Intelligence, a newspaper printed and published in the town of Paulding Jasper County Mississippi for the space of six weeks successively citing these said heirs and all persons interested in said lands to be and appear at the time and term aforesaid to show cause as aforesaid.

It is evident that after Lucretia's death the family broke up with most of the Parker children migrating west from Mississippi:
3. James Drake, husband of Martha Thigpin, was deceased in Jasper Co MS.
4. Biddy and Lee Grayson remained in Jasper Co MS.
9. Thomas Samuel and Amy Gant settled in Clarke Co MS.
10. Elizabeth and Henry McDaniel settled in Newton Co MS. As a widow, Elizabeth would migrate before 1888 to the Utah Territory.

Some of the children migrated to Rapides Parish LA:
6. Levi Bradley and Sina Mitchell migrated by 1860 to Rapides Parish LA.
7. Axey Lori was deceased in Jones Co MS. Husband James Hargrove remarried and migrated by 1860 to Rapides Parish LA.
11. John B and Easter Pennington migrated by 1860 to Rapides Parish LA.

And, some went to disparate counties in Texas:
5. Sarah and Thomas Davis migrated by 1860 to Hunt Co TX.
11. John B and Easter also migrated by 1867 to Robertson Co TX..

My research centers on the Lewis girls and their relations who migrated to Trinity Co TX:
1. Polly and Thomas Chambers migrated by 1860.
2. William and Louisa Lewis are cited migrating in 1856.
8. Jacob B and Cynthia Matilda Lewis are cited migrating in 1856.

Conclusions:
-Inheritances from the Parker family were settled by 2/1853 with Lucretia's probate.
-Not long thereafter, inheritances from the Lewis family were settled with Walden's 1/1855 probate.
-With whatever monies gained from these inheritances, each family had the opportunity to strike out for a new life.
-William, husband of Louisa, brought the lawsuit per his duties as Administrator. It appears that theses actions were the catalyst which propelled the Parker/ Lewis/ Chambers cousinage toward their migration to Texas.

    2. P289 William G Parker

"P289. . . descends from William PARKER, born 1807 in Georgia, and died in 1873 in Trinity County Texas. William married Louisa LEWIS."

William Parker is believed to be a son of Jacob Parker. William is important to this research; as he married a daughter of Walden Lewis. Circumstantial evidence of the relationship to Jacob Parker is found in the 1850 Jasper Co MS census where William named a daughter after Lucretia and a son after Jacob.

    II. Cousin Littleberry Abbington Parker

The Littleberry Abbington Line originated in North Carolina. There isn't a proven relationship to the Jacob Parker line. Given LBA's close proximity to Jacob and the other Parkers of Wayne Co MS, reasonable conjecture led to the belief that there was a family connection. Now yDNA research shows that William Parker, Jacob Parker, and Addison Parker are all closely related--37/37 matches. Thus, it is apparent that there was a cousinage of Parkers who migrated from North Carolina to the new lands of the Mississippi Territory.

    2. Littleberry Abbington Parker

"P290. . . descends from Littleberry Abington PARKER, born 1798 in North Carolina and (probably) Elizabeth "Betsy" BOUNDS, born 1802 in Tennessee or Mississippi. Littleberry migrated into Wayne County, MS by 1816 along with other Parkers, then into Jones and Jasper Counties. He settled in Washington Co., Alabama in the 1850s and 60s, before returning to Jones Co., MS to homestead there and then in Marion County, MS where he died around 1890. His son Martin Parker, born 1835 in Jasper County, MS, is the great grandfather of P290.

Littleberry Abbington is not believed to be a son of Jacob Parker. LB Abbington was born 1798. His place of birth is stated as both North Carolina and Georgia. Were he to be the son of Jacob and Lucretia, Jacob would have been 20, and Lucretia would have been 14; thus making that couple unlikely to be LB Abbington's parents.

Littleberry Abbington is first found in the 1820 Wayne Co MS Census at age 22. He could possibly be the son of John Parker who was living nearby."

    3. Addison Parker

"P272 descends from Addison B. PARKER, born about 1818 in Mississippi. Addison married Mary (Polly) LEWIS, who was born about 1820 in Greene County Mississippi. They descend though Addison's son Little Berry Parker, born abt 1845 in Jasper County, Mississippi and died in 1941 in Franklinton, Louisiana. Current evidence suggests that Addison PARKER is a son of Littleberry Abbington PARKER, born 1798, and that Addison PARKER and Martin PARKER (ancestor of P290) were brothers."

Addison Parker is important to this research; as he too married a daughter of Walden Lewis. Addison is believed to be the son of LB Abbington. Circumstantial evidence comes from the couple naming the first two sons after his father, LB Abbington, and her father, Walden.
