The wife of John Parton is totally unknown. We do not have a first or a last name. I am responsible for this fabrication, wild stupid guess from my article in the Sevier Heritage book when I put "may have been named" (Irena Ebberly). This is totally my invention and totally not true.

The Surry families around 1760 started moving south including John.s father and mother. They died in Halifax County, North Carolina John's 1st wife was out of what now is Rowan County, North Carolina and some records though scant indicate she died form complications from childbirth having Moses in 1805. No name yet only 1 notation but did not show her name.
Census records show John living alone and widowed age 91 in Union Point, Georgia in1840. Union Point was orignally called Scruggsville. Records fom Georgia indicate Talitha died in 1839 but not solid.
We have traced the line to Richard Parton 1523 & Emaline Richardson 1525, Wem, Shropshire, England. It is one of the oldest lines in the U.S. coming through Isle of Wight, Virginia
This is a different Parton family that gets connected in error with John Parton of Tennessee.
