I have not done a great deal on the Parkers but I know about the ones in this area. My father's mother was Lilly Mae Parker Courts. She was married to Edgar Blewett Courts. Lilly's brother Dee was married to Mattie Fosselman. He was killed in an oilfield fight in 1922 in Vivian La. Lilly Mae died in 1924. My grandfather then married Mattie who had been his sister in law . My dad was 6 years old when his mother died so Mattie was the only mother he really ever remembered. Lilly I do have tombstone picture and newspaper articles on the Parkers. Sour lake is very close to where I live and have been there several times checking things out. I have a very good picture of Almeda Hill's maker at Rosedale Cemetery. If you would like copies of any of these just let me know I would be glad to share with you. I did not know if you knew this story or not but I think it is very interesting! Good hunting, Judy Armstrong
