Then there was the thing that happened on May 19 1836.

The Fall of Fort Parker,lots of folks died and some were never found after being hauled off by one indian band or another.

This is when the Parkers,Plummbers,Nixons Falulkenberrys Anglins and others lives were changed forever.

The Parkers are the wife's folks.

They were tough folks back then but sometimes they did not think things out very well.
