PARROTT/PARRIOTT Family Tree The Gloucester and Matthews County Parrotts The Lawrence Parrott who was transported to Maryland in 1662 is probably the one who settled in Glouscester county by 1667. Several lineages later appear in the area (split off as Matthews county), who are probably his descendants, as might be the Lawrence Parrott previously listed. None of these lineages have had their DNA tested: John Parrott, marries Sally Hudgins, 14 June, 1761; Elizabeth Buchanan 25 July 1773. Children: James (2 Jul 1774); Augustine (30 Sep 1777) Joseph Parrott, marries Ann Wake 20 April 1769 Michael Parrott, marries Ann Pallister, 9 April 1757 Richard Parrott, marries Susanna Flippin, 3 January 1762 Children: Robert (3 Nov 1771); George Nevil (30 Jun 1774); Machen (10 Jul 1777) Robert Parrott, marries Elizabeth Morgan, 6 July 1758; Mary Quinn, 10 July 1761 Children: George (2 Mar 1773); Joseph (3 Nov 1775) George Parrott, marries Lucy Longest, 17 May 1772 Children: Robert (1771); George (7 Jul 1774) 17th century Parrotts with no known connection to other families.

Might be ancestors to Perritt family of North Carolina NOTE: There is speculation that this John was also the John Perrot known as 'John the Quaker.' This John, *if* he was the one known as 'John the Quaker,' thus appears to have spent most of his subsequent life in Europe. He moved to Barbados in 1662, and died in Jamaica in 1665. Parret, William, also appears in 1623, in Newport News. Disappears after 1637. Might the same William who later appears in Calvert Co., Maryland, in 1652.
