McDade; Parker
I am trying to trace the ancestry of my great-grandfather, William Byrd "Bob" PARKER. Data I have, said to be from his Confederate Military Record is as follows:
Born: Nov 6, 1841, Hawkins, GA
Died: May 13, 1924, Montgomery, AL
Enlisted: Dec 5, 1861, Columbus, GA
Paroled: May 11, 1865, Meridian, MS
Brothers: John (Jack); Frank; George
Served in "Young's Columbus Georgia Battery, Ross Texas Brigade (General Ross) in the Army of Tennessee under Gen. Braxton Bragg and later under Gen. Joseph E. Johnson"
His half-brother, Frank, was killed and buried at Atlanta, GA. All four PARKER brothers fought at Atlanta. William Byrd "Bob"; John "Jack", & Frank PARKER were in the same battery campaign around Atlanta.

William Byrd "Bob" PARKER married Martha Elizabeth McDADE on Mar 16, 1873 in Montgomery, AL.
Letter from Aunt Edith states "My parents (Bob & Martha) lived at Coosda Station for 23 years.....Lincoln's wife, Mary Todd's own mother was my great aunt...."
Children of William Byrd & Martha McDADE PARKER are:
Oscie Kyle, b. Jan 6, 1874; Nellie Morrison, b. Jun 30, 1876; Leila Mae, b. Dec 14,1877; William Byrd, b. Jul 26, 1880; George Hilton, b. Nov 19, 1883 (twin); Hilton George, b. Nov 19, 1883 (twin); Charles Storrs, b. Jun 10, 1885; Frank Rieves, b. Jul 2, 1888; Myrtle Edith, b. Apr 26, 1891 (my grandmother); Albert Elmore, b. Sep 17, 1895.
McDADE family genealogy datebase contains over 3,000 individuals. No information is known about William Byrd PARKER's family. Any assistance that could be provided would be greatly appreciated. Does the given name "Osce" have any significance in/around Walker County? Thanks! -- Mary Thoeni
