Tar éis cúpla mí pósadh le Victoria Harris le linn 1897 i gContae Franklin, Missouri, Bhog Parker go Contae Bollinger, Missouri le bheith níos gaire dá theaghlach. A thuismitheoirí, Samuel agus Sarah Zimmerman, chónaigh i Dongola, Bollinger, Missouri. Ar Márta 31, 1902, 27-Phós Parker bliain d'aois a dhara bean, 22-Mellie Bollinger d'aois.
1909 dócha go raibh an bhliain ba mheasa den saol Parker Lonzo Bator Zimmerman ar.

Ollie J. Zimmerman was the third son born to my great-grandfather Parker L. Zimmerman and his second wife Mollie Bollinger. Ollie and his twin sister Dollie were born on either April 27, 1906 or April 27, 1907. Since Ollie’s headstone says “1906”, I’m going with April 27, 1906 as his birthdate. In 1909, Ollie would lose his mother, nuair a Mellie

For years, Ní raibh mé in ann teacht ar mo shin-seanmháthair Dollie Zimmerman nee

Many Zimmermans always believed my great-grandfather Parker L. Zimmerman was married five times. Mar sin féin, Parker was married three times to Victoria Harris, Mellie Bollinger and Lydia Margaret “Dollie” Scéal. It was actually Parker’ sister-in-law Amanda Isabelle “Mandy” Scéal, who was married five times. Mandy was born in Illinois on July 16, 1877 to George Washington Story and Malinda Davis although
