Excerpt from Genealogy and Biographical Notes of John Parker of Lexington and His Descendants: Showing His Earlier Ancestry in America From Dea; Thomas Parker of Reading, Mass, From 1635 to 1893 Ever feeling an interest to know more regarding my ances tors and their connection with the progress of the times in which they lived, I undertook during the summer of 1888'to prepare a small pamphlet publication showing the genealogy, if possible, of my own immediate relatives. This attempt only brought to View the necessity of a wider scope and a more complete work. Encouraged at this stage by the interest and entreaties of relatives to extend the work, and feeling the great need of preserving in printed form the historical and genealogical records, which might otherwise be lost forever in the course of time, I finally determined to procure the gene alogy of the Lexington branch of the Parker family.

The compiler realizes the fact that no genealogy is complete or perfect, and the present volume doubtless has its share of errors, although accuracy has been the watchword. It is not laid in the critics' path with any idea of rhetorical excellence or fine writing neither is such a work a pecuniary advantage, as its completion requires years of deep research, correspond ence and expense, but it is given to the family with the com pliments of the author for what use and service it may be to those of the living and future generations whom it does and will concern.
