Morris Herald, June 20, 1890 Conductor Frank Stevens, of Chicago, was called home last week by the death of his father-in-law Volney Parker. Morris Herald, June 27, 1890 Died, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. M. G. Stevens, in Mazon, the 19th inst., Mr. Volney Parker, Sr., after a lingering illness of eight weeks of Bright’s disease. Although every want and every wish were granted, and all that kind and loving friends could do was done, yet it was of no avail. Being a resident of this vicinity upward of twenty years, he will be missed by a large circle of friends, who extend their sympathy to the children in the loss of an indulgent and loving father-a father in whom son and daughters placed their every trust, being left motherless in early childhood.
