Melinda's birth date is said to be 20 Aug 1820. If the 1820 census was taken in Washington Co, Virginia, exactly on 7 Aug 1820, Malinda would not have been born for another 13 days. The true date taken is not written on the document image. Perhaps this enumeration have actually been taken later in the year and that is why Malinda is listed on this census?.

From Ancestry.com, "The official enumeration day of the 1820 census was 7 August 1820. All questions asked were supposed to refer to that date. The count was due within six months, but the due date was extended by law to allow completion within thirteen months."

30 At this time, DNA data must be available at FamilyTreeDNA in order to compare shared DNA amounts and marker differences. Most people who tested elsewhere can obtain a copy of the raw atDNA data file and place a copy in the FamilyTreeDNA database. For mtDNA and Y-DNA, a test must be performed at FamilyTreeDNA.

To transfer a COPY of your atDNA data to FamilyTreeDNA:

Step 1:
You first have to gather your raw DNA data file from Ancestry and save it on your computer. Follow the instructions at
https://www.familytreedna.com/learn/imports/autosomal-transfer/download-results-ancestry/. ​​​Note where you save the file on your computer.

Step 2:​
​Then you transfer the file to FamilyTreeDNA following the instructions in the "How to Transfer Your Autosomal DNA Results" section for "New Customers" at https://www.familytreedna.com/learn/imports/transfer-autosomal-ancestry/family-tree-dna-family-finder-transfer-program/. You will need to pay the small fee (currently $19) to unlock the tools for the Early Texans DNA Committee to be able to compare your DNA to other project members.

Step 3:
After completing those steps and logging into the account you create at FamilyTreeDNA then go to https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/tx-state-gs/about/background and click the "Join" button and follow the steps on the screen.

Step 4:
Then download the fillable PDF lineage application form from
http://www.txsgs.org/TSGS/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/TxSGS_DNA_application.pdf and use a PDF reader such as Adobe Acrobat to fill in the form and mail it to dna@txsgsorg.

35 Elizabeth Frost's maiden name may be Dinkens/Dinkins (from a marriage record). Georgiana Emma Parker Taylor says in her 1907 Eastern Cherokee Application that her grandmother, Elizabeth Frost's, maiden name was "Little or Lytle." {wife of Samuel Frost}, Elizabeth (I403)

38 Further research is needed to resolve conflicting evidence surrounding the sons of John and Sarah Parker, specifically 1) the number of sons, 2) the identity of "Unnamed Parker," 3-month-old male, born about May/June 1860, found in the household of John Parker in the 1860 census, and 3) information about Calvin Parker.

The 1850, 1860, and 1870 federal censuses support the number of six sons; this includes the unnamed male infant born about May/June 1860 and found in the 1860 census. In her 1907 Eastern Cherokee Application, daughter Georgiana Emma Parker Taylor lists the names of six brothers: "Ransom Berry Parker, Emmitt Parker, Calvin Parker, Johnnie Parker, Willie Parker, Joseph Parker”. This is the same birth order found on the three census records, including "Calvin," who falls in the proper birth order to be the unnamed male infant born in 1860.

The one piece of conflicting evidence is found in a newspaper article (“100-Year-Old Woman Ready to Meet Old Friends Today,” (Seminole, Oklahoma) Seminole Producer, 27 February 1955, p. 2, col. 1). The article states "she [Emma Taylor] had seven brothers." There is a possibility that the newspaper reporter misreported the number of Parker sons as seven instead of six, or that Emma Taylor misremembered the number of brothers in her interview, which was given when she was 100 years old.

Since the census records and the 1907 Eastern Cherokee Application (filled out when Emma Taylor was 52 years old) are more reliable sources than the newspaper interview, the information for Calvin Parker and the 1860 census's "Unnamed Parker" male infant were combined. Further research is needed.
