Description
Excerpt from The Park Record: Containing an Account of the Ancestry and Descendants of Thomas Kinnie Park and Robert Park, of Groton, Conn;, And Grafton, Vt;; Illustrated
As stated above, the name of our family is parke, and as long as they remained in Connecticut, and down to the time of the Revolutionary war, they always used the final e, but upon going to Vermont, the final e was dropped. Of those who remained in Connecticut, some spell their name with the e, but we find members of the Connecticut families spelling their name with a final s, or even es. A final or extra letter seems to fill an ever present want, always supplied by the people at large, in addressing us, spelling or pronouncing our name, thrusting extra letters upon us, against our will and con sent. But nevertheless our true anglo-saxon name is parke.
