As shown on our web page at http://parkscrapbook.us/ParkScrapbook/FILES/Gene.htm my father wrote the following: "The great, great grandfather of Wilford E. Park named Amos Park was a physician who practiced in Palmyra, New York. He was twice married and was the father of 17 children. Sometime, probably in 1780, he moved to the Niagara Peninsula area of Ontario, Canada. Wilford E. Park's great grandfather Halsey Park was born in Ontario. He became a school teacher. Wilford E. Park's grandfather, Phillip Bender Park, and father, Watson, both born in Ontario, were farmers in Ontario, Canada."
