From RJ Parsons ”My Dad told me that James Parsons was an orphan. Some of Robert John's notes indicate that he was born near Staffordshire, Feb, 1850, and was raised by a man named Haggen. I know he was illiterate because I have his citizenship papers with his mark. Jane Jones' family came from Aberaman, Wales. Her father was Robert Jones, mother, Liza Richards.
per Robert John's notes on Robert Jones Family:
“Who raised my father Haggen
his father James Parsons was b feb 1850
1861 in Aberdare Wales, James Parsons living with George Hagger
