      The History of Old Spencer Mill, Dickson Co. Tennessee has some history for Daniel Parker and the Elder John Parker. It states the Parker Creek area was settled in 1804 by Moses Parker and his family, including his Uncle the Elder John Parker. Moses Parker's father was Daniel Parker and Daniel was the first minister at the Turnbull Primitive Baptist Church in 1806. Daniel's son Moses died in 9 Aug 1852. Moses Parker, Find A Grave: Memorial #58940485.[1]

      Ancestry contributor doesn't have a complete copy of the Turnbull church records, but some of the Parker's listed are :
      Daniel, Moses, Anson?, Samuel, Joseph, Sary, Hannah, Sarah, Ruth, Elisha, John, Elizabeth (she was excommunicated 1812 for leaving her husband).

      Levin Dickson (Dixon) of Dickson County mentions his wife Abigail, her brother David, and friend Daniel Parker in his will dated 1814.

      Also in Dickson county about 1806 (per Turnbull church records) are Moses Parker and Levin Dickson (Dixon). I saw a post somewhere that stated Levin Dickson married Abigail Parker, daughter of John Parker. Do you know if this is so? Also, the Dickson County Handbook has the following:

      Parker Creek - Early deeds refer to this creek as Parker's Fork of Turnbull Creek. John Parker Sr. in 1810 received 640 acres on Parker's Fork ...Early settlers here were Moses Parker... .and Levin Dickson.

      Re: Parkers in Upstate GA and TN
      Dear otime1,

      Yes, I am familiar with your Daniel Parker family. I have to be aware of your Daniel Parker since I seek my own Daniel Parker ancestor who was born about the same time as yours in about the same part of the country as yours.

      Mine had children Pleasant (oldest known--born about 1775 we think in NC), Alfred, Edward, Betsy, Nancy, and William (and maybe more) who ended up in southeast KY by the 1820s. We have yet to determine the origin of our Daniel Parker. I have read that your Daniel Parker is the one from Halifax County, VA on the NC line. Is this so? If not, the Halifax County Daniel may be mine.
      Please reply, so I will know how to proceed. Besides, our two Daniel Parkers are probably cousins anyway.

      David,

      Thank you. You are most generous. We suspect that is OUR Daniel Parker who had land with William STILES in Wilkes Co GA. Not sure yet, but it appears the Wilkes County Pleasant Parker (whoever be belongs to) got it as a bounty for his service as a sergeant in the Revolution. We found a Wilkes County court record in 1792 where a Pleasant Parker and a William Stiles were ejected from the 300 acre parcel of land on Harding Creek.
      Regardless of where OUR Daniel Parker was before 1796, we are 90% sure it is OUR Daniel Parker who lived on Beaverdam Creek in what was then Pendleton District, SC which is now Anderson County, SC--your home. The court records for 1796 to 1798 stated he was a laborer who came there from Kershaw County, SC, but they could have been mistaken. The court record was to show the trials of this same Daniel Parker for horse theft and just before he could be convicted based largely on the testimony of Edith Parker his wife, he broke jail in April 1798 and disappeared into probably TN leaving wife and kids. We believe he is the same Daniel Parker who showed up in Jefferson County, southeast IN about 1816 and lived in the village of Milton there until he died in 1848. Meanwhile, many of his children between 1806 and the 1820 settled in southeast KY in what became Laurel County. More later. Bruce

      Subject: [SC-OPD] Francis & Daniel Parker During 1790s in Pend. Dist.

      I read in court records about the misdeeds of Francis and Daniel PARKER in old Pendleton District, SC during the 1790s, and I think one or both of them are the Parkers I have been seeking.
      Francis Parker was convicted of creating a riot and assault and battery in Pickensville during 1795 but he fled before sentencing to parts unknown.
      During August 1796 Daniel Parker, a laborer who lived on Beaverdam Creek, in 1796 stole a neighbor's horse and sold the animal near his previous home near the PeeDee River in east SC. He was also convicted partly due to his wife's testimony against him, but broke jail in April 1798 for parts unknown.
      I think these two are the same men of those names shown living beside other in the 1790 census of St. John's Parish not far from Georgetown in east SC.
