I am sorry I made the impression that Sara was a Parkhill at the time of her
marriage to a Callison. But here is the information that I have.
On February 24, 1844, David Parkhill breathed his last breath, leaving no
will. Martha relinquished her right to administer the estate and had her two
younger sons Allen H. Parkhill and Harry B. Parkhill appointed Administrators of
their father's estate on Friday, March 15, 1844. Over a year later on Tuesday,
November 25, 1845 Allen H. Parkhill gave petitions to sell the land and the
estate. The heirs that were mentioned were EMILY JANE, JULIA ANN AND TRAVIS
PARKHILL who lived beyond the state. In fact they were living in Kentucky.
These were the children of Dr. John Parkhill who had married Sara Clapp in
Huntsville AL area in 1820. They later moved to Calloway County in Western KY with
the Clapp Family. John died in 1842 and Sara married John's friend, Dr. Caleb
Jones. Montgomery Gilbreath was appointed Guardian during the interim or the
proceeding for the following minor children: TRAVIS, MARTHA ANN, ELIZA JANE
and EMILY ELIZABETH CALLISON, along with MARTHA JANE, JAMES AND JOHN PARKHILL.
These Callison children are listed as heirs of David Parkhill. So, help
please??????
