Parker Family Recipies Wanted

Marie Thomas volunteered to put together a collection of Parker Family recipes. The reunion committee asks you to please send you favourite recipes to her at:

Marie (Parker) Thomas
PO Box 627
Waterdown ON L0R 2H0
Fax (905) 689-9249 or email Al.

Please let Marie know a bit of background about the recipe...where did it come from? Who made it? When is it served? Why is it special? Feel free to include a photo of yourself or the dish. It takes a great deal of time to put this project together, so please forward your recipes to Marie no later than April 30, 1999.

Val Laferrière has volunteered to do a Parker Family History book for the family reunion. All Parker descendants should be sure to complete a questionnaire and return to her no later than March 26, 1999. Check back soon for this questionnaire!

Copies of the Parker Family History book will be available for purchase at the reunion. This beautiful hard cover book will cover the history of Richard and Lucy Parker, their family presence in New Brunswick, a complete tree of all known descendants and a biography index of all known family Parkers. Val will be selling them at cost which is estimated at $29 per book. If you have any questions about this project, please email Val. See her work.
