Tabitha Parrish was NOT the daughter of David Parrish and Juda Holland, because they married in 1758, and their first child was born in 1758. Their next child could not have been born before 1759, and that could not have been Tabitha, because Tabitha's first child was born about 1768. Tabitha, if the daughter of David and Juda, would have been only age 9 or so. Tabitha's father was a David Parrish, but not the one who married Juda Holland.--jd [David was Tabitha Waldrop's father and married to Juda somebody.-CW]
