Contradictory information from Googins of America vs Old Kittery and her families by Stackpole, Everett Schermerhorn, 1850-1927
https://archive.org/details/oldkitteryherfam00staciala/page/702/mod... Is probably the more reliable source, but Patrick Goggins died in 1784: so how did she marry Benjamin Parker 2nd ?
Help.
Here’s the (separated) Mary Parker
And the source https://books.google.com/books?id=FzdPAAAAMAAJ&vq=Rogers&pg=PA11#v=... that shows the Goggins wife having children at the same time as the Parker wife.
Check out the wedding silver ….

Mary (Gookin) Gedney Cotton Newmarch (1679-1746), married, thirdly, John Newmarch of Kittery, Maine; her Will leaves “plate or silver vessels” to her cousin Mary (Gookin) Parker; her Estate Inventory of 1746 includes “1 Platter ” (see illustration facing page). Then by descent:
Cousin, Mary (Gookin) Parker (1720-d. c. 1772), m. Benjamin Parker, two of their children marry members of Morgrage (later spelled ‘Mugridge’) family:

I think I found something an interesting genealogical artifact (and caught Stackpole in an error).
The auction of this silver platter for $149,000 showed its provenance.

Through a chain of 2nd marriages, Mary (GOOKIN) Parker inherited the platter from her cousin, Mary (GOOKIN) Gedney Cotton Newmarch.
Gookin is not Googins in this case although apparently it was in some cases.
Anyway, I’m quite tickled that dinner ware proves the case.
So - Mary Googins married a man from Ireland (supposedly) and her father gave them a beautiful beach as a wedding gift.
There is confusion again on the Rogers side. Stackpole has only one Richard Rogers, son of Thomas. The Googins book has a Sr & Jr, but it’s vague narrative.
So need more sources.
Thats very Cool! What prompted you to go shopping.
I worked for a company that handled a lot of Christies items post auction items.
I had a lot of amazing things in my hands. Two I remember most were actual hand written Beatles Lyrics and Jimmy Hendrix guitar.
So the Parker's are your kin?
Ive seen it spelled Goggins as well.
No, Private User is related Parker’s, and is a profile manager.
So far Mary (Rogers) Googins is my 8th great grandmother's husband's second great niece. https://www.geni.com/path/Erica-Howton+is+related+to+Mary-Googins?from=363677820350011581&path_type=inlaw&to=6000000050760604885
I’m closer to Mary Parker - Mary (Gookin) Parker is my 7th great aunt's nephew's wife's mother. https://www.geni.com/path/Erica-Howton+is+related+to+Mary-Parker?from=363677820350011581&path_type=inlaw&to=6000000010801613712
That’s because you (Robert Moon) asked if Patrick Googins was ready to be made into a Master profile.
