Nathan Parker's profile is being protected by the Puritan Great Migration project due to the likelihood he arrived in New England by 1640 with his brother, Joseph Parker, and also due to relationship issues that have arisen with his wife, Mary, and their descendants.

Biography

Nathan was born about 1622.

Nathan Parker, Newbury, an early settler removed to Andover, was brother of Joseph Parker.[1][2]

Perhaps he was entered as Nathaniel, of London, a baker, aged 20 in 1638, when Stephen Dummer brought him in the "Bevis" from Southampton. [3]

Emigration: The Bevis left Southampton May 1638 for New England with her master Robert Batten. Parker Nathaunel 20, servant of London Backer[4][5]

On 10 Nov 1648, he married 1st wife, Susan Short, at Andover, Massachusetts Bay.[3]

Child of Nathan Parker and Susan Short:

  1. Nathan Parker Jr b Nov 1652

He married 2nd wife, Mary Ayers, by 1653 in Andover, Massachusetts Bay. [6]

Children of Nathan Parker and Mary Ayers:[7]

  1. John Parker b 20 Dec 1653
  2. James Parker b 14 Aug 1655
  3. Mary Parker b 14 Apr 1657
  4. Hanna Parker b 14 May 1659
  5. Elizabeth Parker b 20 Jan 1663
  6. Robert Parker b 26 Feb 1665
  7. Joseph Parker (abt.1669-1748)
  8. Sara Parker b 3 Apr 1670
  9. Peter Parker b 3 Apr 1676

He died on 25 Jun 1685 in Andover, Massachusetts Bay.[8][1]

When Nathan died, he left an ample estate to his wife and children. The court awarded his wife one-third of the house and lands, equal shares to their children Robert, Joseph, Peter, Hannah, Elizabeth and Sarah, and a double share to their son John. [9] [10] Note that no daughter named Mary is mentioned; this means that she must have died without issue before this date.

I am not going to place a merge request in at this point, but my sense from looking at the two profiles is that this profile and Parker-15257 are the same person. At this point the parents are different and the birthdates are different, so perhaps there were two Nathan Parkers, but in terms of the children and that he spent most of his life and died in Andover, all those details refer to the same Nathan.
