    • From "Genealogical Research in England - Parmenter" French NEHGR V68 1914 pp262-273:
      "Dea. John Parmenter (William, George) of Little Yeldham, co. Essex, and Bures St. Mary, cos. Essex and Suffolk, England, and of Sudbury and Roxbury, MA was b. evidently around 1588 as the baptism of his eldest brother Robert is recorded at Little Yeldham 23 Oct 1586, and yet by 12 Oct 1613 John Parmenter was old enough to be married and to be the father of two children, Mary and John, according to the will of that date of his father, William Parmenter. He may have been b. at Sible Hedingham. co. Essex, but the early registers of this parish are lost. He inherited no lands from his father, and after the latter's death he evidently removed about 8 miles from Little Yeldham into Burs St. Mary. Here his sistes Sarah was married 4 Oct 1616 to John Cressall, who in his will of 9 July 1625 bequeather a cow to his brother-in-law John Parmenter.... In 1639 John Parmenter, with his family, and also the widow and children of Henrie Loker emigrated to New England, settling in Sudbury, MA, where John Parmenter was early chosed selectman, deacon, and commissioner.... In the summer of 1600 he removed from Sudbury to Roxbury, MA, where he d. 1 May 1671, aged 83 years according to the church records of Roxbury, which thus furnish additional evidence that he was b. about 1588. His will, dated 25 March, 1671 and proved 25 July 1671, names wife Annis, daughter Woods, son-in-law John Woods, grandson John Parmenter, cousin [Bartholemew] Cheevers, shoemaker of Boston, and cousin John Stibbins.
