Research Notes

There are multiple Jason Parmenters, and other Parmenter names are often used often, This makes it difficult to get the right people connected. On further research, it does not seem likely this Jason Parmenter is the son od Artemus Parmenter and Sabrina Parks - their son was born after their marriage in 1810.
