NOTES
1). bobspu.ged Individual note BIO As of April, 1995, there has been no confirmation that Grizella and Alexander PARK, I were the parents of William PARK, I. This compiler has presumed their relationship based solely on dates and events the two families have in common. Both men gave their birthplace nativity as Dumfries or Dumfrieshire, SCOTLAND. Alexander s tombstone inscription says he emigrated from SCOTLAND in 181 ...the last digit is extremely difficult to read, but this compiler feels the date to be 1819. Park W. CARTER located a micro film which indicates that Alexander and Grizel PARK, aged 55 and 53 respectively, arrived on the Brig, Susan, 14 June 1819. Port of entry was Philadephia. William s tombstone inscription says he ...came to America 1817.... William and Jane PARK named their first son Alexander, then two daughters were named Jane and Elizabeth probably after Jane and her mother. A later female child was named Grizell and was later reported as Grace on U.S. Census. TracingYour Scottish Ancestry, by Kathleen B. Cory, p 70 71, discusses the interchangeable use of these two female names. Lastly, throughout the 1820 1870 census records, members of the two families appear in close proximity in the Hanover Saluda areas. In October, 1994, Park W. CARTER located William PARK S First Papers in Jefferson Co., IN. page 224 of Civil Order Book D reads William PARKS an alien in order to become a citzen of the United States makes registry and report of himself to the Jefferson Circuit Court and to the clerk thereof. Said PARKS is aged forty years and was born in Dumfrieshire County in SCOTLAND owes allegiance to George the fourth King of Great Britain and its dependencies and on his oath states that he is bona fide his intentionto become a citizen of the United States and to renounce all allegiance to any prince potentate state or sovereignty whatever and particularly to George the fourth King of Great Britain and its dependencies whereof which he is at this time a subject. And that the State of Indiana is his intended place of residence. REFERENCES 1. Tombstone Inscriptions Carmel Cemetery near Hanover, IN. 2. Park W. CARTER, Box 145, Eureka, KANSAS. desc. of Wm.

2). bobspu.ged Individual note BIO It was not known that Jane or Jean ANDERSON as appeared on the Register of Birth by Proof was the wife of William PARK, I, until about 1994, when Park W. CARTER responded to compiler s query in UTHE GENEALOGICAL HELPER MAGAZINE, u. Mr. CARTER knew only that his ancestor was Jane PARK, and that she was born in SCOTLAND. He and a cousin had researched the family enough that they also had estimated that the PARKS must have emigrated about 1819. Through data compiler had collected on the ANDERSON family via Mrs. KORNS and John M. ANDERSON, and data taken from the Carmel Cemetery stone inscriptions, compiler was able to give Mr. CARTER considerable data re his ancestors at the same time, data Mr.CARTER had collected enabled usto fill in valuable data re the ANDERSON family. The year of Jane s death is uncertain. The date is not fully legible on the tombstone, and compiler read it as 1867. In Oct. 1994, Mr. CARKER visited Carmel Cemetery based on traditional data in the PARK family and his own visual examination of the date on the stone, Mr. CARTER felt that Jane s date of death was 1863. In 1870 however, William, age 83, was enumerated in the home of his son, Robert PARK. William s tombstone states that he emigrated from SCOTLAND in 1817. Jane s parents are believed to have emigrated at about the same time, perhaps two years later. Although compiler has not found direct reference to Jane ANDERSON PARK in the records of the Carmel Assoc. Presb. Church, she and William were hosts for the Moses ARNOTT family at census enumeration time in 1860. ARNOTT was the minister of the Carmel Church for many years following the churches split, and was still minister when Carmel congregation reunited with Bethel Church. REFERENCES 1. Virginia H.
