Re: Spelling of the name.

>From my research in Europe, the very earliest spelling was Parc.

My early ancestors (Sir John Parke 1538-1606) used the spelling Parke
and in some of the branches of the family, including mine, it was
changed to Park at a later date. (Moses Park 1738-1829)

Other relatives of mine used Parks.

And yes others used Parkes.

I claim kin to all of them :-)
