I'm not sure if there is a connection here to my Southampton, Hampshire, England Parker's, but I sent your message to a friend who is having DNA testing to members of my Parker website. Hopefully she will be able to answer your question. I personnally do not know how to read the tests. Howard Blair

Library and FHS Lookups / Re: Offer: Southampton archives look-ups
« on: Wednesday 02 March 05 01:31 GMT (UK)  »
Dear ebcoe, I have in the past ordered from Southampton City Archives. And I did ask for help on my ancestors, but they said that they had not the time to do extensive searches. I have ordered from them several Wills of my Parker ancestors, and a map and book called, Southampton in 1620 and the Mayflower. These are my prize possessions.

I am looking for data on my Parker, Elzey and Barlow folks that were in Southampton between 1500 and 1649. I do know from their early Wills that they were Puritans. A professor at a university in Wales told me. He asked if I wanted them to be translated into todays English., of course I said YES! He also asked if he could have a copy of these Wills to have his students to work on them.

I have been stumped for many years now, trying to also find the Pots and Ships name that my George, Ann and Robert Parker came on. They were 'transported' by a Mr. Ralph Barlow in Elizabeth City County, Virginia, and acquired land for this.

Any information on these folks would certainly be appreciated.

Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Looking for Ports and Ship's name.
« on: Tuesday 01 March 05 21:22 GMT (UK)  »
8) I am looking for data on my George Parker. He left Southampton, Hampshire, England in 1649 with Ann and Robert Parker. A Mr. Ralph Barlow 'transported' them in 1649. Ralph Barlow was in Elizabeth City County, Virginia.

What I have been searching for is the 'Departure port, arrival port and the Ships name.' This was at the time when the Commonwealth took over the Crown (1649).

I'm not sure if my Puritan, George Parker fled in fear of his life, or what.

Would or could anyone shed some light on these questions I have. I would certainly appreciate your responces. Thanks so much.

Howard Blair :)
