    Notes:

    William Alexander Parker Family
    Toshes/Toler’s Ferry, Virginia.

    William Alexander Parker’s ancestors landed at the Cliffs, St. Mary’s County, Maryland, in 1635. Some of the Parkers migrated to the Baltimore and Washington, DC areas. William Alexander Parker, youngest of his family, moved to Fauquier County, Virginia. He then left Fauquier County and moved to Pittsylvania County in 1768 – to get away from the Indians and to raise tobacco. He and his wife built a home at Toshes, near Toler’s Ferry. It is believed that his wife’s name was Henrietta. Some of their children were David, Benjamin and George. It is told that William Alexander had two other sons who were killed at Braddock’s Defeat in 1755. David and Benjamin moved to Hardin County, Kentucky.
    David was there in 1820, when David’s wife accidentally used arsenic instead of soda when preparing their bread; poisoning herself, David and two of their children. Benjamin, David’s considerably older brother, became the guardian of his brother’s surviving children. Some of the Kentucky Parkers moved to Illinois, while others, during the early and mid-1800’s ventured to Texas (Fort Parker) where one of the Parker children, Cynthia Ann, nine years of age, was kidnapped during a Comanche raid in 1836. Cynthia Ann married a Comanche chief. One of her children was Quanah Parker, a well known Comanche chief, who made numerous trips to Washington, DC to negotiate on behalf of his people.

    -The Last Comanche Chief, The Life and Times of Quanah Parker, Bill Neeley, published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc).
     
    George Parker married Frances Oaks and stayed at the home place in Pittsylvania County (Toshes). Frances Oaks is related to the Toler family – also spelled Towler. George was born in 1769 and died April 5, 1859. He and his wife are buried at the Parker/Rorer home place, Toshes.
    George and Frances had a large family. David Parker, one of their offspring, was born 1802; m. 1st Mary A. Toler (Toler’s Ferry), 1849; m. 2nd Mary Amanda Goggin, 1855; and they also lived in the same house as David’s parents, George and Frances (Oaks). It became the Parker ancestral home. Mary Goggin’s 2nd cousin was Mark Twain (Samuel L Clemens) (see Our Kin, Ackerly and Parker, Bedford County, Virginia families). Mary Goggin Parker had a brother, the Reverend Thomas C. Goggin, well known preacher in Bedford County during the 1800’s.
    Another one of George and Frances’ children was the Reverend Joseph Parker, who served a number of churches, and who was very well known and beloved during his lifetime. His farmhouse was renovated in more recent times, and is currently known as Bernard’s Landing (Smith Mountain Lake) in the Bedford, Virginia area. (Moneta). David and Mary (Goggin) Parker’s children were William (Willie) David, Penhook, Pigg River; George Stephen, Vinton, Va; Mary Emily (Emma) m. Jimmy Rorer (Emma and Jimmy Rorer established their residence at the old Parker home – in order to be with her aging and widowed mother, Mary Goggin Parker) – thus it became known as the Parker/Rorer place; and Charles (Charlie) Ross Parker, who m. Mary A. Tuck (Mary Tuck related to Glenns and Whiteheads of Pittsylvania County). Charlie and Mary lived on the Staunton River, Toshes, Virginia. The family attended Summersett Baptist Church. Alice Parker, wife of Giles Jefferson Morton was the youngest of their nine children. She lived in Pittsylvania County all her life.

    Some assumptions may be made from this entry.....he had five sons...he bought the shoes and ribbon for his wife or daughter...he bought educational materials for his children...he lived in the part of Hanover that converted to Louisa.

    Anyway, very interesting to have a peek at his selections.

    Notes:

    William was born ca 1698, probably in Sweden. He was brought to America by his parents at about the age of seven and was raised in New Castle County, Delaware. He married Magdalena Petersson, daughter of Peter and Karin Petersson, at Holy Trininity Church in New Castle County, Delaware on April 21, 1720. The Peterssons were a Swedish family. The last record of the William Vardaman family in Delaware is the baptism of a daughter in 1724. William next appears in the Rockfish Gap area on the eastern slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains in what is now Albemarle County, VA, but was then in Goochland County in 1734. By 1744 he has moved a little further south to the Peaks of Otter area of the Blue Ridge Mountains in what is now Bedford County, VA. In 1744 this area was in Brunswick County and later, in 1746, in Lunenburg County. Bedford County was created out of Lunenburg in 1754. In 1766 William with his second (or possibly third) wife and youngest son, James, relocated to the Dutch Fork area of what is now Newberry County, South Carolina, but was then in Craven County and later included in the judicial division known as Ninety Six District. William purchased 150 acres on the south side of the Enoree River on Indian Creek on 13 Dec 1766. The deed refers to William as a merchant. William died ca 1789 in Newberry County naming his wife Bridgit and four sons John, William, Jr., Peter and James, in order in his will. The first three were probably f from his first wife, Magdalena Petersson, while the last son, James, was probably with his last wife, Bridgit Tinkler. Based on details included in the various biographies of his grandson, Rev. Jeremiah Vardeman of Kentucky and Missouri, William raised a very large family. Since there were only 4 sons, there are likely several daughters. Unfortunately, we know the names of only two: Maria and Jemima. While it can't be proven, there is likely another daughter named Frances who married Peter Bennett. Beyond this we are unable to conjecture with any degree of confidence on the names of any additional daughters.
