GENEALOGY OF THE PARKER FAMILIES OF NEW HAMPSHIRE (and NEW ENGLAND)

Regarding this genealogy... I am NOT a Parker descendant. Please do not ask me to perform your research for you. (That should be the "fun" part, in researching it yourself). I am not responsible for the accuracy of this genealogy. I have noted some of the sources at the bottom of the page.

I have collected, compiled, researched and finally documented multiple PARKER families, mostly those who lived in the MERRIMACK, LITCHFIELD, BEDFORD, AMHERST area, in Hillsborough County, New Hampshire. Most of these families lines originated in Massachusetts. An "+" notation before a name indicates that further lineage is traced in this document. Please consider this information copyrighted by the webmaster.

Please note that there were at least FIVE separate PARKER families who lived in southern New Hampshire. I have not determined that all of them were related to each other.

He became one of the earliest settlers of Groton, where he was very prominent in the affairs of the town. He was one of the first board of selectmen chosen in 1662, and continued in that capacity most of the time until 1669. He was a representative to the general court in 1693, selectman of Groton (many years between 1662-1699), town clerk of Groton (abt 1678/79) and treasurer of Groton. His will was written 25 May 1700.
After King Philip's war and the resettlement of Chelmsford, a mill was built at Stony Book, concerning which this record is found: "The twenty shillings due the Indian Andrew from the town, for his weir at Stony Brook, assigned by said Indian to Richard Blood, the said Blood assigns over to James Parker." This was about 1680.
James house was one of the garrisons used during King Philip's War, and it was with Capt. Parker that the Indian chief, on the night of March 13, 1675, talked, as mentioned in Hubbard's "Narrative." In the assault made on the town, July 26, 1694, his son James and his son's wife, Mary, were killed by the Indians and several of their children were carried away captives.
This family's history has been traced to the remote progenitor who in the eleventh century entered England with Wiliam the Conqueror. Another reference states that the Parkers of this line are said to have descended from Lord Parker of Macclesfield, England, who is supposed to have descended from one of the natural children of King Charles II, who is said to have descended from William the Conqueror.

Maggi Parker Makes Most of Life
by Dick Kleiner
NEA Hollywood Correspondent
HONOLULU (NEA) -- Hollywood may some day succeed in doing something to Maggi Parker that life hasn't done--type-cast her.
Maggis is the Hawaiian discovery that all the people connected with the new CBS series Hawaii Five-O are excited about. It is easy to understand their excitement; Maggi is one sharp lady.
No teeny-bopper or juvenile sex symbol, she's a mature, sophisticated, but down-to-earth 34-year-old. She's crammed more into her 34 years than most people do into a life-time. And she's still cramming.
Maggi is a proper Bostonian, distantly related to Parker games people. She always wanted to act, but that ambition was frowned on by her parents.So she took her master's degree in education from Boston University and set out on a teaching career. She taught in Nashua, N.H., and on Cape Cod. Then she signed up as a teacher with the Air Force.
She taught in a school the Air Force maintained in Madrid. She became an expert in handling emotionally disturbed children at an Air Force base in Malloren.She came to Los Angeles to work on her doctorate at the University of Southern California. She was studying school administration, but marriage got in the way. Instead of a Ph.D., she got a Mrs. and came to Hawaii in 1964.
When Hawaii Five-O came here she was among the first local actors cast, playing the continuing role of Jack Lord's secretary. It isn't a big part--yet--but she's there ever week, and there is the usual talk of enlarging her role in coming episodes.
"At first," Maggie says, "I was deathly afraid of Jack. For the first two shows, I'd look up from my desk and there would be this blank wall -- nothing in his eyes. But somehow, that changed in the third show. For the first time, he seemed to see me. Its bee fine from then on."
