        Son of Richard:

        Pipes Place is situated in Forge Lane (formerly Smith Street) Shorne, Kent, opposite Malthouse Lane. It is a large house built in the Georgian style lying a little back from the road behind a large wall of red brick. ..It is thought that the house was probably owned by Edmunds father Thomas Page, who married Frances Parker, the daughter of Richard Parker, a local Justice of the Peace, and the sister of John and Henry Parker, but the original owners of the estate are unknown.
        In 1640 Richard Parker, a local magistrate, lived at Pipes Place. He lent his clerk to the vestry, and his first appearance as vestryman was in 1646. He was referred to as "The Squire of Pipes Place". Richard Parker was subsenechal (a steward) in nearby Gravesend, when the Duke of Richmond was High Steward of the town. The Commonwealth of Oliver Cromwell existed from 1649 to 1659, and as the duke was named a Malignant (a Royalist) the Corporation of Gravesend offered the Stewardship to Oliver Cromwell, who commissioned John Parker as understeward. It is thought that John Parker was one of Richard's sons.
        When Richard Parker died in 1646 Henry Parker inherited the estate, and continued living at Pipes Place. He became a prominent figure in parish affairs during the rest of his life.
        In fact Rentroll for 1702 showed "the widow Martha Parker" residing at Pipes Place until it was sold to Jarvis Maplesden III, who bought the house along with 20 acres of land from the Parker family.
