Richard Parker was the son of Noah and Malinda Parker from Mississippi, other siblings of Richard are Mary Jane, Argie, and Henry Parker born in Texas. Richard Parker had a few wives and a huge family and he owned property in the town of Vivian.  The land is located at what is now the town’s country club. Not all his grandchildren are listed as some are born later than I'm documenting and could still be living.
