John came to KY from Mecklenburg Co., VA in 1782, 15 years before my fraternal 5GGF Ebenezer Park, Sr. (1747-1839) and Family did from Rowan Co., NC. John founded the first Methodist Church east of the Alleghany Mountains and was a Revolutionary War hero and Grandfather to Congressman Milton Jameson Durham (1824-1911), my 3GGF. John's wife was Martha Bugg (1747-1819).
