Jonathan Parr was baptised on 25th August 1822 at Epperstone in Nottinghamshire, son of a frame work knitter called William Parr and his wife Mary. The 1841 census finds Jonathan living at Epperstone with his parents and brothers.
On 25th May 1849, aged 26, he was married at Epperstone to Sarah Singleton. They went on to have three daughters together between 1850 and 1862. The first two daughters were born at Epperstone, where Jonathan initially followed his father's trade and worked as a frame work knitter.
By 1861 he had instead become a gamekeeper, and they spent a few years travelling around, presumably living on or near the big estates which employed him. In the 1861 census they were at Trowell in Nottinghamshire, then in 1862 they were at Blakenhall in Cheshire when their youngest daughter was born. In 1871 they were living at Wollaton back in Nottinghamshire.
By 1881 Jonathan had changed occupation again, and he was working as a grocer in the town of Hucknall, near Nottingham. He died in that area eight years later in 1889, aged 66. Sarah survived him by sixteen years, intitally continuing to run the grocery business in Hucknall, before going to live with her youngest daughter.
