Sept. 18, 1 693, m. Thomas Valentine ; Robert, b. March 23, 1694-5, d. Feb. 9, 1736-7 ; Susanna, b. Dec. 22, 1696 ; Rebecca, b. Jan. 22, 1698-9, m. Hugh Stalker; Rachel, b. Deo. 26, 1700, m.

On May 21, 1724, with all of his family except Mary and Susanna, he went on board, at Dublin, the ship "Sizarghs," of Whitehaven, Jeremiah Cowman commander, and on August 21st they arrived in Delaware Bay. Thomas Parke leased a property from Mary Head, near Chester, as a temporary home, but on December 2d purchased 500 acres from Thomas Lindley in the Great Valley, on the west side of what is now Downingtown. Of this land he gave to his son Abel 100 acres, to Robert 124, on which was a very large spring, and to Thomas, Jr., 276 acres, retaining a life-estate therein. He died 1, 31, 1738, and his widow 6, 21, 1749. He was an elder of Cain Meeting, and well esteemed by Friends."1 He was Quaker with Thomas Parke and Rebecca Hooper.2

     "Proceedins for the settlement of Jonathan Parke's estate were had in the Orphan's Court of chester County in the year 1769.

     "In 1782 John Hannum, the hero of the Revolutonary battlefield, and the man of business affairs throughout the Bradfords, the Calns, and the Goshens, was appointed guardian of Elizabeth Parke, and in connection with the other Parke heirs, asked the court for a writ of inquisition for the purpose of settling the estate. Other proceedins were had and the business was concluded.
     "Abiah Parke's will, dated March 31, 1800, gave and decised to his son, Thomas A. Parke, some of the land on which the present "Swan Hotel" stands, thus described: "'Beginning at a corner of John Edge's land by the turpike road, then by said land southeasterly and notheasterly to line of wm. Parke's land and by the same southerly to chester road and by the same in the line of John Hoopes' land westerly to the line of John Edge's land, and by the same up the wet side of Brandywine Creek, then crossing the creek easterly to line of Downing's sawmill, and by the same until it meets the turnpike road, and along it to place of beginning. Supposed to contain 33 acres more or less."7

; According to Futhey & Cope [1881:600]: "PARKE, Thomas, born about 1660, married Rebecca Hooper (?), who was born about 1672. They had the following children, all born in Ireland: Mary, b. Sept. 18, 1 693, m. Thomas Valentine ; Robert, b. March 23, 1694-5, d. Feb. 9, 1736-7 ; Susanna, b. Dec. 22, 1696 ; Rebecca, b. Jan. 22, 1698-9, m. Hugh Stalker; Rachel, b. Deo. 26, 1700, m.

April 5, 1767 ; Elizabeth, b. Oct. 5, 1711, d. April 16, 1746, m. John Jackson. Thomas Parke appears to have been a farmer in Ireland, and in the year 1720 owned some land in Ballileau, Ballaghmore, and Coolisnactah. On May 21, 1724, with all of his family except Mary and Susanna, he went on board, at Dublin, the ship "Sizarghs," of Whitehaven, Jeremiah Cowman commander, and on August 21st they arrived in Delaware Bay. Thomas Parke leased a property from Mary Head, near Chester, as a temporary home, but on December 2d purchased 500 acres from Thomas Lindley in the Great Valley, on the west side of what is now Downingtown. Of this land he gave to his son Abel 100 acres, to Robert 124, on which was a very large spring, and to Thomas, Jr., 276 acres, retaining a life-estate therein. He died 1, 31, 1738, and his widow 6, 21, 1749. He was an elder of Cain Meeting, and well esteemed by Friends."1 Elizabeth Parke witnessed the immigration of Thomas Parke and Rebecca Hooper between 21 May 1724 and 21 August 1724 at Delaware Bay, Pennsylvania, USA; According to Futhey & Cope (p. 600): "On May 21, 1724, with all of his family except Mary and Susanna, he went on board, at Dublin, the ship "Sizarghs," of Whitehaven, Jeremiah Cowman commander, and on August 21st they arrived in Delaware Bay."

Dr. Thomas Parke MD died on 9 January 1835 at Philadelphia, Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania, USA, at age 85.3
      ; Futhey & Cope (p. 600): "Thomas Parke, son of Thomas and Jane, was born in the township of East Cain, Chester Co., Aug. 6, 1749. Having a desire to engage in the study of medicine, he went to Philadelphia at the age of sixteen years, to acquire a preliminary education, and there became a pupil of Robert Proud, the Quaker historian. In 1767 he began his medical studies under Dr. Cadwalader Evans, of Philadelphia, and took the degree of Bachelor of Medicine at the college and academy in the same city on June 5, 1770. In the year 1771 he crossed the Atlantic to avail himself of the advantages of medical instruction in Great Britain. He first visited London, where he enjoyed the friendship and kind offices of the justly distinguished Dr. John Fothergill. He next proceeded to the school at Edinburgh, then in the zenith of its strength, where he attended the lectures of Cullen, Black, and Monro.
     Returning to London, he attended the clinical practice of Guy's and St. Thomas' Hospitals, and finally set his foot on his native shore in the year 1773.
     In 1775 he was married to Rachel, eldest daughter of James Pemberton, and immediately established himself in the practice of physic at No. 20 South Fourth Street, Philadelphia, where he remained upwards of forty years, well known as a skillful, kind, and attentive physician. In 1816 he removed to Locust Street, where he resided during the remainder of his life.
     He lost his wife, to whom he was most affectionately devoted, in the year 1786, and never again married. He was a member of the principal scientific, literary, and benevolent institutions of the city. In 1774 he was chosen a member of the American Philosophical Society. In 1776 he became a contributor to the Pennsylvania Hospital, and in May, 1777, was unanimously appointed one of the physicians of that institution,—a station which he held uninterruptedly for more than forty-five years. In 1778 he was elected a director of the Philadelphia Library Company, in which situation he was continued until his death, —a period of nearly fifty-seven years. In 1787 the College of Physicians was established, of which he was one, and continued a member until his death. At the decease of Dr. Adam Kuhn he succeeded that gentleman as president of the college, in July, 1818. Dr. Parke died on Jan. 9, 1835, in the eighty-sixth year of his age, being at that time the oldest physician in Philadelphia.
     He was not only an excellent physician, but also a public-spirited citizen and an excellent man,—at all times the intimate, the constant, and highly-valued friend of Humphry Marshall."3

Reference: per Jordan [1911:I:174]: "a distinguished physician of Phila. Was one of the founders of the Phila. College of Physicians.."4
