    Notes:

    Everett was the 2nd child of Freeman and Ora May Loranger Parker. He was born 14 May 1911 in Yolo County.

    As a youth Everett had terrible night mares and often would sleep walk. He and his brothers slept in a screened porch. He would get up in his sleep and walk through the screen and out into the orchard. One day his dad followed him trying to get him back in bed. Everett climbed under the truck, scraping his back. Afraid to shout and startle Everett, Freeman grabbed him by the nightshirt and took him back. When the family went camping, Everett would have to sleep in the back of the tent with all the family sleeping between him and the door. He still managed to step over all of them in his sleep to go for a walk. He had rheumatic fever as a youth and was left with a heart murmur. He also had a stuttering problem when young. He was very active in High School sports, and enjoyed participating in musical and drama productions. As a new husband, Everett worked at a service station in Vacaville when Ron was born, about 1934. He worked on the Central Valley Project during the depression years. When he and Elinor first married they had an almond orchard located west of Esparto, on Highway 16., across from his fathers. In the 40's they moved into town, where he operated a station and did hand-grooved tire recapping. He later built the first Texaco Service Station, and later a Chevron Service Station, on the corner across from Wyatt's store, on the old Hotel site. Ron and Ross picked up many bricks from the old hotel while cleaning up the property. Both boys worked in the Chevron Station and the almond orchard during their high school years. A little kitchen was on one end of the station,where hamburgers were sold. Gasoline, lubrication, tire repair and minor mechanical repair were services offered.
    Elinor and Everett moved to the corner of Highway 16 and Main Streets, in the earky 1950's, where they raised almonds, walnuts, and peaches. Everett's last job was as Yolo County Purchasing Agent in Woodland, along with being an almond farmer. He died from chronic Nephritis at age 53. He is buried Capay Cemetary, Esparto, Yolo, CaliforniaHe had been ill for about 3 years. He had been an active member of the local Masonic Order, being a Past Master.

    Hungry Holloow is about 5 miles north of Capay in Yolo County. Freeman was an almond farmer and an expert in grafting and care of trees. He had an ulcer and had to drink goat's milk, so he kept a pet goat that went everywhere with them. When he went to the beach house at Dillon Beach, which he built in about 1917, He tied the goat on the running board. On one trip the goat fell off and the children had to chase him down. Many fishing trips were made up on the rocks, 'poke-poling' for eel. At home, Freeman had a wine cellar underground behind the garage that had to be entered by a ladder. It had wine barrells with a hose on a spigot. Friends would come by and take a swig out of the hose. Lois heard them talking about it and one day decided to try it. She ended up in an apple tree singing at the top of her voice. She got a spanking for her escapade. Freeman died at age 76 on his ranch, at the old pump house. Everett found his father, after he had been reported 'missing'. Freeman and brother Gene, bought almond orchards, approximately 1905, NW of Esparto. Everett bought Lou Chinn's house up the road and piped water under highway to get water from Freeman's to his orchard. Freeman had arthritis in his hands and would put his hands under an ozone lamp. He had an enlarged heart, and may well have suffered from prostate related complications, in his old age.

Where he was a sheep herder, cattle rancher and farmer. That is where he died. He was buried in th Odd Fellow's cemetery at Capay as he was a member of the Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F.)

    The following is from, "Histoy of Yolo Co, California, Biographical Sketches, "John R. Parker" pg 768.:
    "John was born at Newark, Licking County, Ohio and at the age of thirteen in 1851 he accompanied his parents from Ohio to Iowa settling in Poweshiek county, where he aided his father in the clearing of a government claim. In 1858-59 he made a trip to Pike's Peak at the time of the discovery of gold in Colorado. The trip peaked his interest in the west but was unsatisfactory from a moneyed standpoint and he returned to agriculture efforts on the home farm. He took up land for a homestead and spent many years in making improvements, bringing the soil under cultivation and securing ...whose broad fields of grain stretch from his barns in every direction,...While he gave his attention almost wholly to agriculture, there was a time in young manhood when he taught school and he continued in that profession for a very short period after his marriage, thus earning the money he needed for defraying indebtedness on his land.
    Shortly after his arrival in Yolo county California in 1876, and his taking up of land, Mr. Parker went back into the hills near snow mountain, where he bought about three thousand acres of land. On this vast tract he herded a flock of three thousand head of sheep. The business proved profitable. He also owned an almond orchard of thirty acres in Hungry Hollow, but this he sold. He was active in general welfare and especially in the work of the Christian Church. He was a school trustee. He took no interest in public affairs. He was a citizen of sterling, rugged characteristics, of pronounced strength of character and unquestioned integrity in every relation of life."

    He died from a brief illness of severe grippe followed by pneumonia.

    note! The above article said that "eleven children were born of their marriage, but three of these died young, namely: Everett, John and Lena: and Elbert died in 1904." The 1900 Census shows John, Lena and Albert (Elbert) still alive.

    John Robert PARKER
    The laborious existence of a progressive Iowa farmer, whose broad fields of grain stretch from his barns in every direction, was exchanged for the radically different yet no less busy life of a California sheep-raiser when in 1876 Mr. Parker removed to the western coast as a permanent settler. Prior to the removal his life had been marked by few changes, the first of any importance having been the migration of the family from Ohio to Iowa when he was a lad of thirteen years, and the second event of prominence occurring when he made a trip to Pike's Peak at the time of discovery of gold in Colorado. The latter journey interested him in the west, but the results from a moneyed standpoint were unsatisfactory and he cheerfully returned to agricultural efforts on the home farm.
    John Robert Parker was born at Newark, Licking county, Ohio, November 9,1838, and at the age of thirteen in 1851 he accompanied his parents, Timothy and Catharine (Trout) Parker, from Ohio to Iowa, settling in Poweshiek county, where he aided his father in the clearing of a government claim. Later he took up land for a homestead and spent many years in making improvements, bringing the soil under cultivation and securing those returns to which the efforts of capable farmers entitle them. While he gave his attention almost wholly to agriculture, there was a time in young manhood when he taught school and he continued in that profession for a very short period after his marriage, thus earning the money he needed for defraying indebtedness on his land.
    The establishment of a home on an Iowa farm'followed the union of Mr. Parker with Miss Sarah Dillon, a native of Ohio and a woman of forceful personality and attractive qualities. Eleven children were born of the marriage, but three of these died young, namely: Everett, John and Lena; and Elbert died in 1904. Those now living are as follows: Durward C., Eugene D., Freeman, Jennie K., Luella, Eva and Mary E. The first-named son, a resident of Esparto, married Minnie Gates and is the father of two daughters. Eugene D., of Capay, Yolo county, married Daisy Goodnow and has two children, Milo and Fern. Freeman, who lives at Esparto, is married and has two sons, Ervin and Everett. The first-named daughter, Jennie K., is the wife of Richard Chinn and the mother of four children, John, Lela, Erma and Blanche. Luella, Mrs. Hugh Chinn, has four children, Lowell, Amy, Nella and Stella. Eva married Jack Simpson, a dairyman living at Meridian, Sutler county; they are the parents of three children, Elmo, Elmer and Vernon R. Mary E., the last-named member of the Parker family, married Paschal Moore and they are living on a dairy ranch near Woodland; their family comprises three children, Marvyn, Leoma and Ola.
    Shortly after his arrival in Yolo county and his taking up of land, Mr. Parker went back into the hills, where he bought about three thousand acres of range land. On this vast tract he herded a flock of three thousand head of sheep. The business proved profitable, although the net returns were largely reduces through the depredations of wildcats, wolves and coyotes. In those days wild animals were plentiful and hunting excursions were frequent in the vicinity of the Snow mountain, where frequently Mr. Parker aided in the killing of bears. On his large ranch near Esparto he planted eight acres in an orchard which forms a valuable adjunct to the place. At one time he owned an almond orchard of thirty acres in Hungry Hollow, but this he sold. Throughout the long period of his residence in Yolo county he gave
    consistent aid to all movements for the general welfare and especially helped in the work of the Christian Church, whose doctrines he upheld by precept and theory. His interest in educational progress led him to consent to serve as a school trustee, but as a rule he declined all offices and took no part whatever in public affairs and politics aside from voting the Republican ticket. When death came to him, February 24, 1902, it removed from the county one of its pioneer sheep-raisers and worthy ranchers, a citizen of sterling, rugged characteristics, of pronounced strength of character and unquestioned integrity in every relation of life.

    1887 Timothy and Kate celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in 1887 in Vacaville, CA.
    Newspaper article
    "THE GOLDEN WEDDING: Saturday last these two patriarchs celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary in Vacaville surrounded by their sons and their wives and children. There was present at the re-union in the forenoon the following: J.R. Parker, wife and two children; G.L. Parker, wife and daughter; O.E. Parker, wife and five children; H.L. Parker, wife and three children; Mrs. Martha Huchinson, SanJose; Richardson Chinn, wife and great-grand child; Mrs. A. McDonald of Winters and Eugene Harris, of Lake county, a grand son. This was an extra-ordinary number of decendants to be present and speaks well for the adhesion of the family.
    In the evening a large number of their friends gathered at their residence to congratulate the old couple and to wish them many additional anniversaries. During the evening Elder Pattee read the following poem, written by Miss Sarah Higgins, Commemorative of the event, which we shall place under the caption: CATCHING A TROUT: To-night we're all assembled in this fair and happy land, in spite of many troubles, a bright and joyous band, to celebrate a great event that happened long ago, When the locks were bright with sunshine, that now are white with snow. Dear friends, if you will listen, I'll tell the wondrous tale of this couple walking hand-in-hand, through life's uncedrtain vale. Perhaps amongst the number, some few will warning take. And resolve the holy marriage vows their lips will never make. In fair Ohio's balm clime, land where good men die and Bucheye shoot its branches green toward an azure sky, There lived, full fifty years ago, a maiden young and fair, With liquid eyes so full and black and waves of raven hair. Kate Trout was the fair maiden's name of whom this tale I write, Her past had been a happy dream; her future seemed as bright. O;, many were the suitors who worshipped at her shrine and the number she rejected was somewhat akin to nine. As each hopeful one was treated to the mitten from her hand, Off in dark despair he wandered, sighing for a better land. But when her eighteenth year had come, and her heart was still her own, There came from grim New England's strand, a youth of high renown. Of noble parentage he came for I have his honest word, That his nephew's uncle's cousin's wife was the grandchild of a lord: And then you know, at Stony Point when Wayne cut such a figger, The man who gave the countersign was his own grandsire's nigger. But we'll dwell not on his ancestors, for some great author cries, In thunder tones, "Act well your part, there all the honor lies." Well, Parker was the noted name of this young gallant swain, A kind and tender heart had he, a wise untireing brain. Before the people there could think what Parker was about, He gave his mind to fishing, and soon he caught a "Trout!" And having caught this lovely Trout, as proud as proud could be, He gaily launched his bark upon the matrimonial see. Westward then they journeyed onward and their lives seemed bright and free, As the golden lines of sunset, dancing on the rippling sea, Parker was a loving husband and his heart was tried and true, But in one ungarded moment, things about him fairly flew. One evening as he crossed the threshold of his little cottage home, Pitying those who had no fire-sides, but throughout the world must roam, His head collided sharply with a saddle---woeful fate! And he pulled it down and threw it into the neighboring state! Onward still they journeyed westward Each year brought its griefs and cares, Each year brought its joys and sorrows, They were blessed with many children, One fair girl and seven boys; All were bright-eyed happy children, Life for whom was full of joys. Once again they journeyed westward, and beheld ere many days, California's glorious splendor, gilded with the sunset rays. Vacaville, this beautious city, then became their chosen home, And throughout the misty future never will they wish to roam. So, tonight we're all assembleld in fair Vaca's glorious clime, Halting but for one brief moment in the rushing stream of life. Round about us stand the children of this genial man and wife. All the air is thick with Parkers; You could cut them with a knife. Throughout the silent future while the tide of years shall bow, May the name of Parker ever be as pure and fair as now. May the hand of God be with them till the storm of life is past, and may it safely guide them through the pearly gates at last."]

Kiefer, New York; Z.R Bennett, Printer 76 Cortlandt Street. 1888.(copy in Salt Lake City Family History Library, call # 974.728 H2K) Page 65-67: "It is said that while Pompey was chatting with the British sentinel, the latter was suddenly seized by the men whom the guide had brought with him. This may or may not be the order of things; but would it not be more in keeping with the circumstances to say that Pompey's chief services on the occasion were in the fact of his having, by special agreement, procured the countersign for the Americans on the evening of the attack. (on stony point)…….We venture the opinion that Pompey did little effective service beyond giving the password for that night, and that on the discharge of the first gun, and that, too, on the outside of the first row abates, Pompey retired with accelerated speed. ….
    If Pompey was the slave of Mr. Lamb, whose residence at that time stood on the high ground which formerly extended out as far as the locality of the present store of D. Tompkins & Sons, it would be natural to suppose that, in making his market visits to the British garrison, he would take the causeway leading directly from his "massa's" house to the foot of the hill, where the first abates cornered.

    "Oscar Parker returned from Vacaville Tuesday evening, where he went to attend the funeral of his father, who died suddenly at that place, at an early hour. last Sunday A.M.
    Appears that the deceased had been complaining of a pain in the breast for 2 or 3 days. He did not regard it as a serious matter, and remonstrated when a physician was called. The physician examined him and pronounced his heart and lungs in good condition.
    Mon eve, he went to bed as usual, and so far as his wife knows, slept during the night. In the A.M. he awoke and got out of bed about 5 o'clock. Mrs. Parker enquired why he was getting up so early, and he replied that he was tired, and thought he would get up and make a fire.
    He partially robed himself in the bedroom, and retired to the sitting room and was setting on a sofa, and in the act of pulling on his stockings, when he fell over and expired immediately. The verdict was that he died of neuralgia of the heart.
    Deceased was a native of NY, and 78yrs, 7 mos, 7 days old. He was well known and highly respected"

    buried in Elmira Cemetary, Vacaville, California

    Note: The Miles Parker listed on the grant deed with Timothy in Ohio in 1851 is in the

    Notice that the older Abigail in the 1860 Census is probably the same as the one in the 1850 census with Timothy Parker in the 1850 Ohio census.

    Timothy married Catherine "Kate" TROUT on 28 May 1837 in Hartford, Licking, Ohio, United States. Catherine (daughter of Michael TROUT and Sarah or Sally Baker) was born on 14 Jan 1820 in Licking County, Ohio, United States; died on 25 Feb 1895 in Woodland, Yolo, California, United States; was buried in Vacaville, Solano, California, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 9.  Catherine "Kate" TROUT was born on 14 Jan 1820 in Licking County, Ohio, United States (daughter of Michael TROUT and Sarah or Sally Baker); died on 25 Feb 1895 in Woodland, Yolo, California, United States; was buried in Vacaville, Solano, California, United States.

    • Reference Number: ^
    • _MARNM: Parker
    • _UID: 8F8DA5D26CFC6A47AB89EB40CDD6AD0C675F

    Notes:

    I believe Catherine, who married Timothy Parker, was the daughter of Michael Trout, because John Westbrook was , made guardian of Michael's 3 daughters; Margaret, Helen and Catherine, in 1837. just before Catherine's marriage. John Westbrook lived next to Timothy in the 1840 Census in Licking County Ohio. Timothy Parker's mother was Abigail Westbrook. I believe John Westbrook to be related to her . Michael Trout was married to Sarah Baker. She later married John Westbrook as Sally Trout. Timothy and Catherine Parker moved to Powesheik County, Iowa. Catherine Trout's sister married Edward Griswald in 1841 in Powesheik County, Both of them and Sarah and John Westbrook are buried in Dresden Cemetery in Poweshiek County, Iowa.

    "Yolo Weekly Mail", Friday, 15 Feb 1895, (Woodland newspaper, Yolo Co. archives): "Mrs T J Parker, mother of O E Parker, is dangerously ill at her home on Court St. She is suffering from heart trouble."

    Obit from "Yolo Weekly Mail", Tues, Feb 26, 1895, pg 7: "Mrs. Catherine T. Parker died yesterday forenoon at the home of her son, Oscar E. Parker on Cort St. For the past five years the aged lady has been an invalid. Recently her health failed rapidly, and she could not survive an attack of lagrippe, with which she bravely struggled the past two weeks.
    Deceased was a native of Ohio, and at the time of her death was aged 75 years, 1 mo, 11 days. She has been a resident of Yolo County for the past 25 years. A family of four sons who mourn her loss are: JR of Hungry Hollow, OE of Woodland, Hiram L of Kings Co, JM of Vacaville. The remains will be shipped to Vacaville, and the funeral held at that place at 10 am today."

    Obit "Woodland Daily Democrat", 25 Feb 1895: "Death of a Good Woman, Mrs Catherine Parker passes away peacefully and Serenely. Mrs. Catherine Parker died at the residence of her son, O E Parker on Court street, at 11:30 am Sunday.
    The immediatecause of her death was pneumonia, but she had been afflicted with paralysis for five years, and had been unable to walk for more than a year.
    The deceased is native of Ohio and 75 years, 1 month and 10 days old. Her husband preceded her to the grave about a year ago, and he was buried in Vacaville,

    after which they made their home in Yolo county.
    She leaves four sons,m JR Parker, of Hungry Hollow, O E Parker of Woodland, H L Parker of Kings county, and J M Parker of Vacaville.
    Mrs. Parker had been a devout member of the Christian church for more than fifty years. She was a woman of gentle and lovable disposition and exemplary character, and her death will be profoundly regretted by all who knew her. The body will be shipped to Vacaville on Tuesday for interment."

    Katy died from Heart problems and Grippe.

    The question was: whose father was the Catherine Trout who married Timothy Parker in 1837 in Licking County Ohio.

    I believe Catherine Trout, who married Timothy Parker, was the daughter of Michael Trout and Sarah Baker. John Westbrook was made guardian of Michael's 3 daughters; Margaret, Helen and Catherine Trout, in 1837. just before Catherine's marriage to Timothy Parker on May 28, 1837.. Michael Trout died in 1822, and there is a marriage of a John Westbrook and Sally (a nickname for Sarah) Trout in Licking County, Ohio, 12 March 1825. I could not find John Westbrook in the Ohio 1820 census. He might have been living with his parents. I could not find Michael Trout in the 1810 Census in Licking County Ohio but found a Henry Trout, ( Henry is thought to be Michael’s father), in the neighboring county, Fairfield, in the 1806 tax list.
    John Westbrook lived next to Timothy in the 1840 Census in Licking County Ohio. He had 2 males under 5, 1 male 40-50, 1 male 60-70, 1 female 10-15, 2 females 15-20, 1 female 30-40. Timothy Parker and John Westbrook were also neighbors in the 1850 Census in Licking County, Ohio and Timothy’s mother, Abigail, is living with him. Abigail’s maiden name was Westbrook. In the 1850 Census there is an Ephraim and Sarah Baker living next door to Timothy and Catherine Parker. It is possible that he is Sarah Baker,/Trout/Westbrook’s brother. Ephraim is 51 and Sarah Westbrook is 49. Although the marriage record states John Westbrook married Sally, In the 1850 through 1870 Censuses, John Westbrook’s wife is listed as Sarah. In the 1960 Census both the Timothy Parker family and the John Westbrook families have moved to Iowa within 30 miles or so of each other. Timothy in Poweshiek County and John in neighboring Iowa County. Before 1870 Timothy had moved tp California and John remained in Iowa. He and Sarah were buried in Poweshiek County. I also believe it was Catherine Trout’s, sister, Helen, who married Edward Griswold in Licking County, Ohioon Sep 27, 1841 and are listed in the 1856 Iowa Census in Poweshiek County. Both Edward and Helen Griswold are buried in the same cemetery as John and Sarah Westbrook. Timothy Parker's mother was Abigail Westbrook. I believe John Westbrook to be her brother. I have not proved this information. However, I believe with all of this related documentation, that the Catherine Trout who married Timothy Parker and the Helen Trout who married Edward Griswold are the daughters of Michael and Sarah Baker Trout . I have not found Margaret Trout’s marriage yet.
