Pioneers West of Appalachia revised

I have the original book Pioneers West of Appalachia by Jan Parker McManus which contains Parker and Jackson family history. But I'm having trouble finding the revised one from I think 1984 that I can purchase. So I'm looking for leads if anyone has any or if anyone has the revised one they are willing to sell to me. Thank you

Parker FG#7

Thanks for letting me join the group! I am related to Wylie Astin Parker and Asa Jasper Parker who left Greene Co, GA for Rusk Co. Tx in 1852. I am so thankful for the person that took the time to transcribe the Minute book from the White Plains Baptist Church White Plains, GA. My line is from Richard Parker, who started attending that church in 1812. Looks like Stephen Parker was one of the original members of the church,but I don't think he is my line because the dates don't match up. I now…

Thank you for accepting me into Parker Heritage. My 5 GGM was Patience Parker b. ~1742, who married James Sellers. They lived in Chatham, NC and migrated to TN. I have atDNA matches to both Parker and Benton ancestors - I am investigating whether Patience came from a Parker-Benton marriage. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Long Lost Parker!


I hope this finds you well. I am James Parker. Direct descendant of the Parkers of Ashe County, North Carolina. For the past four years, I have been stuck at my fifth-great-grandfather, Jesse Parker (1805 NC- 1871 Ashe County, NC). He lived on in North Fork which is located in the Creston area of Ashe; directly next to Mountain City, TN. I have my ancestors accounted for from Jesse downward. Alas, I have not found Jesse's parents. Family tradition states that his father was a man named…
