NOTES
1). bobspu.ged BIO The following biographical information is taken from that written by Park W. CARTER and based on the research of Mr. CARTER, his cousin, Glenn A. PARK and the copy of the biographical history of Central KANSAS cited in References, above. Thomas wasborn and raised in Jefferson County, INDIANA. After his marriage to Jennett MANN in Jefferson County, 1842, the PARKS resided in that county. Three years later, they removed to LaPorte. IN, where they farmed for about 8 years. About 1853, the PARKs movedwest to Boone County, IOWA. There Thomas spent some time operating a saw mill. Next, the family moved to Kankakee County, ILLINOIS, where Thomas was a tenent farmer for about six years. After a brief time near Paxton, Ford Co., IL, they resided on a farm near Hoopeston, in Vermilion County, where several of the PARK and HANNA families remained for many years. In 1872, Thomas took his family to Kingman County, KANSAS, near the small town of Waterloo. Then about 1884, Jennett MANN PARK s brother Andrew MANN gave his sister 160 acres approximately one mile south of Sterling, KS, in Rice County. Thomas and Jennett PARK raised seven children on their farm near Sterling, and were highly respected members of the community there. Thomas passed away there at the age of 81 Jennett died in Rice County two years later. Compiler found the marriage of Thomas and Jannett MANN PARK listed in the marriage index for Jefferson County, IN per that record, the marriage took place 24 DEC rather than 28 DEC 1842. Itis likely that the earlier date is the day the application for marriage was filed. REF 1. Park W. CARTER, Box 145 Eureka,KANSAS 67045 0145 desc. of Thomas and Jennett MANN PARK. 2.
