Ebenezer was her second husband, a nd they h ad eleven children together, raising sixteen children total, wh o all live d to an adult age.
In a written biography about him, Ebenezer was said to be “a fine old ge n tleman, exceedingly neat in person and polite in manner.” He was also r ef erred to as “Dr. Parker” in the “Keep Genealogy.” Ebenezer passed awa y o n December 29th, 1831 in Richmond, Virginia.
