My Parks line starts with Richard Parks m.Eliz. Billings
Jonathan Parks m. Mary Whiting
Jonas Parks m. ?
Jonas Parks m. Zillah Conger
John Parks m. Elizabeth Finch/Ingrham
We're having a lot of trouble finding Elizabeth's surname. Mostly they lived in Greene, Dutchess and Broome Co. NY

My line from Thomas is through his son James Nesbit Park and first wife, Margaret McKinney then their son Orrin and Sarah Seward. Orrin had 14 children and was my grandfather's grandfather. My grandfather and his sister did a lot of research on his father's siblings and their descendants. They were prolific letter writers and loved to visit relatives to gather info.

Of Thomas' children's descendants I have: Daniel (8 generations of descendants through 2 children, 3 gen for the rest), Mary (1 gen), Elizabeth (3 gen), Susannah (1 gen), Samuel (3 gen), James (8 gen, mostly complete through abt 1960, mixed since then), Thomas Jr (3 gen), Joseph (5 gen), Amos (1 gen).

Is there a place on GW to have a collaborative family tree that we can all add to?

What a great photo, Lee! I have information on Robert and Thomas and Thomas' children (just names and dates), although I haven't verified all of the info with real sources as of yet. I myself come through Robert's son Samuel and I do have a lot of information on this line. Would love to share info!

Midge, I was there! Here I am introducing my son to his first known ancestor in the US. (photo taken in 1987). Thomas, whom I mentioned below, is a 3rd great-grandson of Robert. (Robert>Thomas>Thomas>Thomas>Josiah>Thomas). I have not worked on much documentation before Thomas (1749-1819) but have loads of info on his descendants.

What a coincidence, Midge, so am I ;)
