	Where was he born, Jean? Do you know the names of his parents/siblings/wife? Just his name and approximate year of birth isn't enough for us to base any research on, I'm afraid.

Robert Parker's father Thomas Parker had entered into a business relationship with a cousin named John Dickens, father of the future novelist Charles Dickens." According to the above, Robert's father, THOMAS was the cousin of John Dickens More dates given here: http://eugenehalverson.blogspot.co.uk/2011/07/smith-parker-chidester.html
