(There is an active debate as to the identities of the following John, George,
Margaret and William as the siblings of our Peter H PARKER, bc 1805 KY.
We have yet to find a PARKER yDNA test for any of their male PARKER
descendants. In addition, there is a yDNA test confirming that John Burns
PARKER, 1809 TN, is a close relative of our Peter H PARKER, bc 1805 KY
and several researchers believe they are brothers and not siblings to the
PARKERs listed below.)
