History: Old Fort Parker State Historical Park is a reconstructed fort that pays tribute to the Parker family and other pioneers who paid a high price to settle in Texas. The Parkers and other members of their church came to Texas from Crawford County, Illinois in 1833. In 1832, Daniel Parker, a staunch theologian, had gained permission to settle in Texas. After organizing those who wanted to go to Texas into the Predestinarian Baptist Church, they all left Illinois in July of 1833 in ox- drawn wagons. Daniel and the majority of his followers settled near the present City of Elkhart, where a replica of their Pilgrim Baptist Church still stands in their memory. Other members of the group preferred to settle farther west, near the Navasota River. Elder John Parker and three of his sons (Silas, James, and Benjamin) began in December 1833 to clear land and to construct "Parker's Fort."

On May 19, 1836, Comanche Indians attacked the fort; 5 were killed, 5 were captured, and the 21 survivors made their way to where Palestine is today. The most famous of the captives was Cynthia Ann Parker. She adapted to Indian ways and later married Chief Peta Nocona. Quanah Parker, the last great Comanche chief, who was involved in the Battle of Palo Duro Canyon, was the most famous of their three children.

The Fort Parker Cemetery, located 2.2 miles from the Fort, is an active cemetery and has the graves of the people killed at the Fort in 1836.

Fort Parker Cemetery:
The martyrs of Fort Parker who were killed by the Comanche Indians on May 19, 1836 are buried in a common grave in this cemetery. The names of these martyrs are:

Elder John Parker
Benjamin F. Parker
Silas M. Parker
Samuel M. Frost
Robert Frost

NOTE:  Fort Parker History says that only 5 people died in the massacre and they are buried in Fort Parker Cemetery and listed above.  21 escaped, so perhaps this William Savage actually escaped and died later of wounds received at Fort Parker?  or it's just family lore that can't be proven.   There are no known Savages' buried in the Fort Parker Cemetery, although the surveyor indicated that there are graves with no markers and markers that can't be read, so he could have been buried there.  lcw
