PARRIS Family Inquiry

Jimandjo White (Email: jimanjo@hotmail.com) has an inquiry and says, "I am researching the Parris Family. My mother-in-law, Opal Parris White, now deceased was decended from James Parris born 1755. You have an Edward Parris born to Alexander and Elizabeth Smith Parris in 1699 in Kent County, Delaware. I believe that he had a son named Moses who had a son named James who is my James.

"I would like to know how you came by this information. It is very interesting because my husband's grandfather always claimed that the Parris family in Tennessee was decended through Alexander Parris from Parris Island. In my research, I have determined that James is descended through Edward. If your are correct (or as correct as can be), this makes sense to me. I hope you can help me. - Joanne White, Putnam County TN"   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
