From Reading VR we know there are two people named Jonathan Parker who are possible husbands for Ann Flint - Jonathan, s. Thomas, Nov. 4, 1678.and Jonathan, s. John, July 18, 1681.

One of these two married Mehetabel Bancroft, Jan. 2, 1699-1700. Since she died in 1703, both are possible husbands for Barbery Elseley, Oct. 15, 1706 and Ann Flint, Dec. 26, 1706.

Because of the spelling of Jonathan in the records for the marriages of Mehetable Bancroft and Ann Flint, I think they may be the same person.

Any help would be greatly appreciated in differentiating these two.

The other Jonathan may be Jonathan Parker

https://mathcs.clarku.edu/~djoyce/gen/report/rr05/rr05_398.html (Pane-Joyce) has Jonathan (1681) as the husband of Ann Flint.
https://mathcs.clarku.edu/~djoyce/gen/report/rr08/rr08_116.html#P2669 (Pane-Joyce) has Jonathan (1678) as the husband of Mehitable Bancroft.

One of the children of Jonathan Parker & Ann (Flint) Parker is Kendall Parker. Thus, this Jonathan Parker has a Kendall in his lineage. That would be Jonathan (1681). In Geni, he is Jonathan Parker but with Barbara Ilsley attached.

There is a shell for Ann Flint - Anna Parker - attached to a shell for Jonathan and a stick tree for a John Parker born in Rhode Island. (Reading VR does not list a John Parker for Jonathan & Ann.) There is another shell for Ann - Ann Parker - attached to a fictitious Jonathan (1695) but with the son Kendall.

Unfortunately, https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/65211515/jonathan-parker has him with both Barbara Ilsley and Ann Flint. This is not possible since they were both married in 1706 and were having children at the same time.

From https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Parker-31632, we know that the Jonathan Parker that married Barbara Ilsley died Sept. 20, 1749. It also has the first two pages of his will. Among the items in his will is a mention of his grandson, James Dix. Jonathan & Barbara had a daughter, Amy who married James Dix. Both Amy & James were dead before 1746.

There is one more profile for Jonathan Parker - Jonathan Parker. This one is also attached to Barbara Ilsley (a different profile than above!) and their son, Daniel.

What a mess!!
