I have traced my PARROTT line back to New Jersey. The first three generations as I know them  were found in "Genealogies of the First Settlers of Passaic Valley" by John Littell.
       My branch of the family migrated from the  Morristown area of New Jersey to the north central  part of Ohio. Some of  the  children of the forth generation were born in general vicinity of Crestline Ohio, The remaining children  were born in Stueben County Indiana. I have visited the graves of Sylvester and Henrietta Parrott in Alvarado Indiana, as well as some of their children's graves in Metz and Angola.  My Grandfather, Garst Ogden Parrott was just a boy when the family moved again.  This time to South Bend, Indiana  probably around 1910.  I would like very much to find out exactly where this family originated and when  they entered our country.  I would also like to correspond with anyone that may have  additional information on this PARROTT family or any  of it's branches.
