by a train in NYC. There appears to be DNA evidence linking this fragment line to the Robert

DD Andrew Parks (1770-1836) m. Harriett Washington. Geographic area: Baltimore, Fredericksburg,
West Virginia. Seven children known: Anne Eliza, Lawrence Augustine, Bushrod, Laura Angela, Andrew,
Mary, and John Parks, born between 1797 and 1816.Source Materials: Genealogy of the Families of the Presidents, Reginald Buchanan Henry, 1935.[A historical tidbit here: There are several recognized genealogical
numbering systems (of which the Parke Society is one). Reginald Henry created what has come to be
known as the Henry System, which uses a series of digits to describe the place of the descendant in
the family scheme. It can get rather complex as the generations go, and once you move beyond the
9th child you run into the possibility of confusion. If you see in a compiled genealogy
something like: 138523, you are looking at a Henry Number.]

This line is unusual in that we have in our records five generations that remained in Ireland

and XW. There is a fair amount of material on this line due to one constant researcher.

KK James Parks (01KK1) of NY (1771, Sussex Co, Eng-1842, Saratoga Co, NY) son of a John Parks. (Represented) V47#1 Some of his children and a brother (David, 01KK5) proceeded him to America aboard the Robert Edward which landed in New York from London on 2 November 1827. This James and wife Mary
came later together with most of the other children except for Sarah. That passage is still being researched.
James (01KK1) married in 1793 to Mary Henbrey, and had a total of 14 children all born in Sussex,
England. This is an Immigrant Line.Source Materials: Descendant’s Papers and F. S. Parks’, Genealogy of the Parke Families in
Connecticut
(1906) Pages. 274-276. [Contains several errors and is very thin]. Additional research done
by the Lineage Leader PS#1407, Frederick Saar, and cohorts, has enlarged the information known by us. The 1827 immigrant group aboard the Robert Edward:

  • Martha, 02KK2, (1795, Eng Ð ?, probably NY), married Stephen Furner, in 1819, Ewhurst, England,
    often mis-interpreted as Turner, had 6 children.
  • John, (02KK7), (1806, Eng-1864, NY) married Hester Millham c. 1827, Ewhurst, England, had 5
    children.
  • Josiah, (02KK8), (1808, Eng-1867, NY) married first Caroline Westfall 1828, NY, Had 5
    children, married secondly Mrs. Louisa E. (unknown) House, after 1846, had another 5 children.
  • James, (02KK6), (1804, Eng-?, ?) married Harriot Crouch, 1824, Ewhurst, England, had 9 children.
  • Henry, (02KK9), (1811, Eng Ð 1865, NY) married Maria Hicks, 1836, probably Ewhurst, England, had
    9 children.
  • Philip, (02KK9a), (1813, Eng-?,?). Little is know. Previously it had been reported that he “died young”
    which has since been disproved. In letters sent back to England he was reported to have been
    apprenticed to a tin smith.
  • Joseph, (02KK13), (1810, Eng-1865, MI) married Nancy Ann Coon, 1832, NY, had 9 children.Others coming later:
    • Mary, 02KK1, (1794, Eng-1839,?) little else is known.
    • Merriam, (02KK3), (1798, Eng-1869, NY) married Thomas Avann, 1818, Ewhurst, Eng, had 4 children.
    • Ann (Mercy) (02KK4), (1800, Eng-1848, NY) married Joseph S. Soden, 1834, NY. Had 5 children.
    • Daniel, (02KK10), (1814, Eng-1895, NY) married three times (1) Matilda, 5 children, (2) Jane Ann, 2
      children, (3) Orpha Ann Kenyon, 5 children.
    • Stephen, (02KK11), (1817, Eng-1905, NY) married Mary Emile Hoffman 1841, had 9 children.
    • Rhoda, (02KK12), (1820, Eng.-1852, NY) married George Clark, circa 1843, NY, had 2 children.

    Remaining children: Sarah, 02KK5, (1802, Eng-bef. 1872, ?) married Charles Parks (relationship to
    this line unknown at this time), 1821, Ewhurst, Eng. May have stayed in England, but a son, Benjamin
    is supposed to have come to America and is buried at Whitesboro, NY.

    Information concerning James’ brother David: David, (01KK5), (c1778, Eng-?, ?), arrived with wife Rebecca and perhaps 4 children aboard the Robert Edward, 2 November 1827. Little more is known about him, or his children. Needs research.
