Cap's Paternal Heritage

PARLIER

Cap's paternal lineage is highlighted in RED with the order of birth for each generation from left to right.

The history prior to Issac is a bit misty. Family mythology suggests a family by the name of du Parlier emigrated from France circa 1792, shortly after the beginning of the French Revolution, settling in North Carolina. Circa 1820, the family moved to Ohio, and then to Illinois. We believe Issac was born in Illinois.

Issac and his family moved via train {in 3 box cars: 1 for people, 1 for animals,
and 1 for equipment} circa 1872 to California. They settled on land in the San Joaquin
Valley purchased from the railroad for $5/acre. There were no roads, no trees, no power
and no water. The nearest fresh water was 5 miles away. Issac established
the town of Parlier, incoporated in 1912.

in World War I, and his sons served in World War II with his two oldest sons surviving combat.
