Elizabeth was the daughter of Samuel Parker Sr. and Elizabeth Hawke Parker.
Between September and October of 1793, she, her husband Joseph, and sons Samuel, Edward and Joseph all died in the yellow fever epidemic. Edward died with relatives at the Upper Springfield, N.J., meeting but her husband and other sons likely are buried with her.
A DAR report credits her husband Joseph as serving as inspector of elections in Philadelphia, but supporting data tied to daughter Sarah is for a mixture of Sarahs that is similar to but not the same as the correct one, so the overall allusion may be suspect. The Byberry history that includes the correct one does not refer to this.
The inherited family account (mostly lists of births, marriages and deaths) was explicit about burial of Elizabeth at Arch Street and son Edward at Springfield after his brothers in Philadelphia but was less explicit about the rest of the family. But it seems most logical that father and sons are with mother, especially when Arch Street at the time buried large groups quickly under duress.
Her husband and surviving daughters Sarah (later Walton) and Hannah Ashton (later McDaniel) are described in the Byberry Waltons genealogy under the biography for Sarah's husband Benjamin Walton and his parents and descendants. That account series describes this Elizabeth's husband Joseph Sr. as a bricklayer living on Budd Street, shortly before the epidemic. Another part of the book describes Sarah's death being pronounced by a Dr. William Calver, who was the son-in-law of Sarah's sister Hannah Ashton McDaniel.
Family accounts, which provided the exact birth and death dates, reported that after Elizabeth, her husband and two of three sons died, Elizabeth's sister Hannah Parker Andrews and husband John Andrews, took the surviving Ashton children to Upper Springfield meeting at Burlington, N.J., where the remaining son soon died but where the two daughters survived.
The Andrewses were later in Philadelphia. Their burial places are not yet documented.
Elizabeth's other sister was Sarah Parker Cathrall, wife of Benjamin of Philadelphia. Their wills mention their Ashton nieces by name.
And, Elizabeth's widowed father, Samuel Parker (1723-12 Aug. 1813) died in the home of William Andrews, son of John and Hannah Parker Andrews, as the cousin/foster brother of Sarah and Hannah Ashton. William was reported as living at Bristol, across the river from Wrightstown, N.J., but also was described as living in Philadelphia.
Elizabeth Parker Ashton's daughter Hannah Ashton McDaniel's grave also has not yet been located, but the grave of her daughter's husband, John Bowman McDaniel (linking to Elizabeth's grandchildren), is # 114576063. Son-in-law McDaniel was born at New Egypt, Burlington County, N.J., not far from Wrightstown, but then moved to the Kensington area of Philadelphia. After McDaniel died, his widow Hannah moved in with her daughter Elizabeth McDaniel Calver, who died in 1853, three years before Hannah did. Hannah's surviving children at the time were Joseph Ashton McDaniel, Benjamin Walton McDaniel and Sarah McDaniel Redifer, all of the Philadelphia area.
Most likely, survivor Hannah, already in Kensington, lived with eldest son Joseph (1809-1866), buried in West Street/Kensington Union/Palmer, whose graves were removed to other cemeteries. (His sister's Calver grave group that had shared Joseph's cemetery were removed as a group in 1873 to Mount Peace, but it is not clear where Joseph's went. The last of his cemetery's removals was in bulk in 1911. But no specific record of any kind has ever yet surfaced for Hannah. Her death date -- 13 Nov. 1856 -- is known just from family records, which did not include her location.)
