I hate to start an argument BUT not all the Parker lines in Sumner County trace back to Nathaniel Parker.

My line is through Dempsey Parker War of 1812 veteran married to Frances Hargis. His son James G. Parker born abt. 1820 in TN was married to Rhoda A. Whitson born abt. 1832. Am a direct descendant of theirs. My family has lived near Cottontown for a LONG long time.

My maiden name is parker and am in a direct line from Dempsey and Frances
