Parker Family History

Parker Genealogy & Family Tree

Parker is an English name first found in Somerset, England, where the earliest Parker—Anschetil Parcher—was recorded in the 11th Century. It refers to someone who works as a parker or the guardian of park grounds or large estates. It is the 51st most common surname in the United States and the 46th most common in the United Kingdom. In recent years it has also become a popular given name. The family motto is Non fluctu nec flatu movetur or “He is not moved by either wave or wind.”

Other spellings include “Parkers,” “Parke,” “Parks,” “Parkes,” “Parkeres,” and “Parkere.” Notable people with the surname include American criminal Bonnie Parker (better known as part of the duo Bonnie and Clyde), American jazz musician and composer Charlie “Bird” Parker, American writer Dorothy Parker (The New Yorker, A Star is Born, The Portable Dorothy Parker), and American actress Sarah Jessica Parker (Sex and the City, Hocus Pocus, Footloose). The first Parkers to come to America were Nicholas, Ann, Mary, and Nicholas in Massachusetts in 1633.
