THE GRAVE OF RICHARD
PARHAM. REVOLUTIONARY
SOLDIER IN BALDWIN CO
It is an interesting story, that of
the Myrick's and the Goodwyn'a and
the Stiths and the Parham's coming
from Virginia to Georgia; how these
families intermarried, how some of
them fought in the Revolution and
took iand in Baldwin County, and
that their graves are here and that
the house of Richard Parham, remov-
and Mr. _
Emory ed three-fourths of a mile from
original site, still stands in the Mcr
riwether district of this county.
Richard Parhams name is in th<

4. Richard Parham, Revolutionary
soldier; Stith.
The house site of Richard Parham
is in N. W. Baldwin, ten miles from
Milicdgeville. As it is now pasture
land and pine trees cover fields which
fifteen eyars ago were cultivated.
When Mrs. Mary Hawkins Barks
dale. grandmother of Dr. Hubert,
added more land to her plantation,
she bought one hundred acres from
Mr. Billy Scoggin which land contain
ed the graves of Richard Parham and
his wife and also the house in which
the I they lived. Mrs. Barksdale let Mr.
with trees. Though there are some
stone markers.
The old Harvey house was just
bark o* the Brown house and was a
story and u half high.
At this house Sarah Harvey
married Jarrell Barksdale and Mary
Hawkins, Sarah's cousin, married Ho
ratio Barksdale. These latter were
w® grandparents of Dr. Hubert and
the former were the grandparents of
Mis. J. D. Howard.
That addition of the graves of the
Daughters of the American Revolu
tion to those of tie soldiers them
selves will make a long list.
