Native American genealogy research from the Piedmont of NC & VA
Hello,
As you know, I am on my long quest to find my great-great-great grandfather and mother Henry and Mahaby Parker. Sufring the net and posting on another genealogy website I came across a Henry parker son of Silas J. Parker and Delila Hasty born between 1805-1810 in Hertford County, NC. Delila Hasty’s Parents are Mathew Hasty and Lydia Peebles from VA. Silas John Parker’s parents are Peter and Joanne Parker from Bertie or Northampton County, NC.
Delilah Hasty’s sister Jemima married Silas Parker’s brother Peter and their children are Burwell, Anna, Susannah, Peter III, Lemuel, Wiley R., Matthew, Steven and Barbara.
I find it odd that several of those names are the same names of My Henry Parker’s children and grand children. Now it could just be that those where the popular names of the day but I don’t know.
Other children of Silas and Delilah are: Winea, Elizabeth, David, Wiley S., Jethro, Ann, William James and Mary Rebecca. I laughed when I saw that becasue my aunts name is Mary Rebecca.
According to the post I found Henry had a bunch of step-siblings becasue his father married 4 times.
These are the same Parker’s that had the Parker Meeting House on the Mehrrin Rive, it’s now called the Mehrrin Baptist Church I believe.
Bill, do you think that I maight have found him or is this another wrong turn. I still have no idea where Mahaby came from.
