Lisa, if you click the "search trees" button up top and search for Parker born in Bromyard ... you won't find many.

I've been in touch with Robert, one person with a Bromyard Parker, about a distant relation of mine by marriage who turned out to be a distant relation of his by marriage. ;)

So he may not be related to that Parker, but I'm sure he'd be happy to tell you anything he knows.

You're probably going to have to figure out where your Parkers were before Bromyard. For instance, the only Parker in Bromyard in 1891 was from Wales:


Name: William Charles Parker
Age: 15
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1876
Relation: Apprentice
Gender: Male
Where born: Llenonock, Monmouthshire, Wales

Civil Parish: Bromyard
Ecclesiastical parish: Bromyard
Town: The Capyards
County/Island: Herefordshire
Country: England


If you post here what you do know for sure -- the name and birthdate of a Parker in bromyard -- people can help you work backwards.
