Among those killed at Groton during the Oyster River Raid July 27, 1694.
Mary was the daughter of Abraham and Rose Whitlock Parker. I would expect them to be buried in Forefathers Burying ground in Chelmsford, but Abraham died before the oldest stone in that cemetery and if Rose is there, I could not find her.
Children:
I. Mary PARKER, b. 21 Sep 1680 in Groton, MA, d. 17 Jan 1746 in Woburn, ma. She married John PIERCE, married 1697 in Woburn, ma. 16. I have not found her.
II. Samuel Parker, b. 22 Sep 1682 in Groton, MA, d. 30 Oct 1775 in Coventry, Tolland, CT. He married (1) Mary (Cordey) CARDER, married 1 Jun 1704 in Boston, b. 1683 in Boston, d. 1724 in Coventry, Tolland, CT. He married (2) Hannah Lathrop THOMPSON, married 1726 in Groton, MA, b. 1685.

III. Phineas PARKER, b. 1684 in Groton, MA, d. 13 Aug 1744.
His boyhood had its tragedy. Both his parents were butchered by Indians when he was but a few years old and he was carried into captivity and held by the savages until ransomed 4 years later. He was, it was said, ever after lame. From his father he easily took the place as the leading member of the family and was abundantly trusted for his honesty, prudence and good judgment. As executor of his fathers' will, he had the task, and it was one of delicacy, of dividing the testators' residual property amongst his numerous grand children.
IV. James Parker, b. March 24, 1686-7. "went, when a young man, to Lynn, Mass. and thence to North Yarmouth, Me. He is confused with his cousin James" (son of Samuel). ref Parker in America p529-30.
