James moved from Lynn, Massachusetts to North Yarmouth, Maine in 1719. He was a captain, inn-holder and a selectman. His brother Phinehas Parker is buried in the Old Burying Ground, Groton, Middlesex, Massachusetts.
Note: "Parker in America 1630-1910," edited by Augustus G. Parker, published in 1911 by Niagara Frontier in Buffalo, New York, page 539 believes the birth year is different saying, "This does not agree with his actual a(ge), but the evidence is too strong to be over thrown by a clerk's or stone-cutter's error." There are multiple references to James on pages 536 - 539 with a listing of his eight children: Mary, Elizabeth, Sarah, Ruth, James, Benjamin, Esther and Rebecca on page 539.
