VA tax record lists Richard Parker (in Kentucky), so Richard Parker migrated by/before 1782 to Kentucky.

On the 15 Aug 1755 Richard Parker and Grissel his wife sold 91 acres of land in Culpeper Co. VA. to Richard Shipp. [Culpeper Co., VA DB. E, p. 12] (FamilySearch) This land indenture was not recorded until 15 Aug 1763 due to frontier troubles caused by the French & Indian War 1754-63 but it shows that Richard Parker and his wife Grissel had owned land in Culpeper Co. VA. about the time of the above Frederick Co., VA. law suit. This deed is followed in sequence on page 15 by a 1765 land indenture between John Nalle and Elizabeth (Parker) his wife selling land in Culpeper Co. VA. to Benjamin Rowe.
