Additions and Corrections
PARKER. "The English Origin and Ancestry of The PARKER Brothers of Massachusetts and Their Probable Aunt, Sarah Parker, Wife of Edward Converse," by Douglas Richardson, 153 (1999) 81-96. The following additions were noted by Marian Parker Congdon (Mrs. Guilford Congdon):

153:87. Following a partial transcription of John (c) Parker's will, dated 15 March 1580/1 and proved 29 May 1681 {should be 1581}, the article indicated that the subsequent history of his widow Margaret (_____) Parker was not known and raised the question of an unlikely indictment in 1607. Margaret's will resolves these loose ends. As Margaret Parker of South Benfleet, widow, she signed her will 19 January 1592/93, and it was proved 9 Sept. 1594. She named John son of my son John Parker of Great Burstead; Sarah daughter of John Parker my son [this is the woman who probably married Edward Converse]; my son John Parker; Anne, daughter of John Robinson my son-in-law of South Benfleet, at marriage or 18; Anne Robinson; Joan Robinson, daughter of Joan Pepper; Amy Dore, daughter of Thomas Dore of Great Burstead [Margaret's granddaughter]; Joan Wilshere of Great Burstead, widow; Rebecca, the girl of my house; Dorothy, the wife of Hercules Robynson; John Marsh of South Benfleet; remainder to John Robynson, executor (F. G. Emmison, Essex Wills: The Bishop of London's Commissary Court, 1587-1599 [Chelmsford, England: Essex Record Office, 1998], 198). Many of the persons named are not identified and may provide clues to Margaret's family. Guilford G.H. Congdon
