- There is one Daughters of the American Revolution Magazine, Vol. 53, R.R. Bowker Company, page 575 that indicates a DAR record for a John Parker being the son of Nathaniel Parker and his wife, Ann Clayton, but it does not say he is the Elder John Parker. This DAR magazine article then states: She is supposed to be a dau of John Clayton and Elizabeth Whiting.
