Maternal timeline
PARKER
Relationship4th great-grandmother of Lorna Henderson.
     
     Charlotte Parkerson was born bef. 1769 ?ESS, ENG, (date assumes at least 18 when married).
     Charlotte Parkerson married William Parker on 7 Nov 1787 at Bocking, ESS, ENG, entry # 61 reads: Wm Parker, batchr of this Parish of Bocking & Charlotte Parkerson spinster of the same were married ... by banns this 7th day of Nov 1787 by me H Wikeham. X mark of both, wit: Thomas Rags, John Parkerson (both made their mark rather than signing).1
     Charlotte Parkerson has also been shown (incorrectly) in records as Tyrell as daughter's death cert erronously given Charlotte's husband's name as William TyrellL.2 She and Tara are related as Tara is the direct maternal ancestor of Lorna, proven by a mitochondrial DNA test. Lorna's proven maternal ancestral line goes: Lorna (NZ), Alice Henderson nee Andrews (NZ); Honor Andrews nee Rowe (NZ); Emma Rowe nee Austin (Australia to NZ); Emma Gibson/Austin nee Clinton (London to Australia to NZ); Jemima Clinton nee Parker (Essex to London to Australia to NZ) with a further possible generation to Charlotte Parker nee Parkinson (Essex) and an awful lot more women who will obviously remain completely undocumented back from the 1760s to 15000 BC.
I see that Oxford Ancestors has one, and only one, direct match for my mDNA on their database although there are many other Tara descendants, including a lady in Auckland whose forbears lived in Essex and moved to London, just like mine, about the same time. Unfortunately, the direct match one hasn't chosen to share her contact details.3,4
