    • Peter became a freeman of the City of Canterbury in 1760, being entitled to the status by his marriage to the daughter of a freeman, though he would have had to pay for the privilege, probably 11½d.

      Many Parkers were freemen (listed back to 1486) with a variety of occupations  - unless / until Ann's baptism is found I'm not sure who her father was and what he did. Many were pipemakers, with quite a few cordwainers (shoemakers), silk weavers and labourers.
    Buried 19 Oct 1788  St. Mary Northgate Church, Canterbury, Kent, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location

    • Although the marriage register gives the brides name as Ann, the banns have Alice. Since the bride signed, and signed her name as Alice I think we can be sure that that is what it was.
