John Abner Park(e)

(01GY1) (no dates given, no marriage information known) to son Abner Park(e) (02GY1), (c1797, NY – 1880, OH) married Sarah Pennell by 1824, in New Jersey. Scant materials exist for this line. Member’s Lineage application gives the father of John Abner Park(e) as a David Park(e). Member cites Virkus, Compendium of American Genealogy, Vol. VI, Page 552 (1937). Virkus needs to be handled carefully as it has often been proven wrong. Search of records within the Society turned up no definite connection for the David-John Abner-Abner line, although circumstantial evidence does seem to point to a possible connection either to Roger, LK=K or Alexander, LK=KY, as these lines have definitely identified members in the same areas as the principals of this line at the same time. DNA testing on a known Park/e/s descendant would be most helpful. The group sheets we have are based on searches of the relevant census records 1850 and later.
