[[evidence:WEB-20261102-032150-c309488a|Parkison/Diven original will and releases]] Original Cumberland will, pp.280–281, image499/542, dated1 April1802 and proved14 April1802, identifies John Parkison of Tyrone Township, farmer; wife Jean; son Richard; daughters Katharine, Ann and Elizabeth. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-899B-JH1W . Later family-land deed recital (Perry pp80–81,image46/502) explicitly identifies daughter Ann as wife of James Diven Junior. Nancy's1832 release calls her formerly Nancy Parkison and widow of James Diven; same sisters and executor correlate Ann/Nancy. Death occurred by probate14 April1802; no exact death date asserted. Will calls executor David Mitchel 'my Brother'; precise relationship and Jean's maiden surname remain unproved. James Diven witnessed will, but Senior/Junior not specified. This does not establish James Junior's ancestry.
