At 41 years of age Tacitus became the father of Sallie Lou Burgin in Fayette Co., KY, October 7, 1870. His biography written by my father, Parker LaBach: TACITUS BURGIN, the son of John and Mary (Howard) Burgin was born on the family farm in Madison County near Otter Creek, near Richmond, Kentucky on Feb. 7, 1829. He married Mary Helen Hinds, daughter of Samuel and Eleanor (Dinwiddie) Hinds, on Sept. 17, 1851 at Camargo near Mt. Sterling in Montgomery County, KY. [Note: Mary Helen Hinds' parents died when she was very young and she lived with her mother's sister's family, the Kirkpatricks.] Tacitus and Mary Burgin lived on a farm on Otter Creek near "station of Shearer" for a few years. Three of their seven children, Perry, Bettie and John, were born there. Tacitus' father, John Burgin, died in 1856. On May 9, 1856 Calvin Burgin and Rowan his wife, Tacitus Burgin and Mary his wife, Thos. G. Parish and Louisa his wife sold their rights in the land of John Burgin to Clifton and Esom Burgin. All parties were heirs of John Burgin. The deed is registered in Madison Co. Crt., Deed Bk. 9, p. 499. There is a detailed description of the land in the deed. Sometime after that and before the birth of their next child in 1859 they moved to Fayette County one mile east of Athens. Their house still stands although in somewhat dilapidated condition since it has not been lived in for many years.

She married Watts Parker in Lexington, KY, March 7, 1878. Watts was born in Athens, KY February 23, 1848. Watts was the son of John Evans Parker and Rebecca Shepherd. Watts died March 13, 1911 in Lexington, KY, at 63 years of age. His body was interred in Lexington Cemetery. Watts's occupation: Attorney in Lexington, KY. Watts was listed as the head of a family on the 1870 Census in Fayette County, Kentucky. Watts Parker is listed in the 1870 Census for Fayette County, Kentucky in the household of George Ryan with his age given as 22, born in Kentucky, with his occupation being assistant grocer. He had a personal estate of $300.
At 30 years of age Watts became the father of Eleanor Parker Lexington, Fayette Co., KY, January 5, 1879. At 32 years of age Watts became the father of Mary Shepherd Parker Lexington, Fayette Co., KY, October 1, 1880. At 35 years of age Watts became the father of Virginia Parker Lexington, Fayette Co., KY, March 1883. This biography of Watts Parker is taken from Biographical Cyclopedia of the Commonwealth of Kentucky (John M. Gresham Compny, 1896): WATTS PARKER, Judge of the Twenty-second Judicial District of Kentucky, was born February 23, 1848, in the village of Athens, ten miles east of Lexington, Kentucky. His early education was limited to the schools of the village and vicinity, and this education was discontinued before he was fifteen years old. At the age of seventeen he conceived the idea of becoming a physician, and to obtain means to enable him to attend medical lectures, he engaged in a small grocery business in his native village and read medicine until he was twenty, attending one course of medical lectures, during this period, at the Miami Medical College. At the age of twenty he abandoned the study of medicine, and at twenty-one engaged in a small mercantile business in Lexington, and there began the study of law. He soon returned to Athens, resumed business at that place, and there continued the study of law. In August, 1870, he was examined by Chief Justice Robertson for a license to practice law, and a license was granted by Judge Robertson and Judge Peters. Removing to Lexington in 1872, he began the practice of law, attended the Law School of Kentucky University in 1872 and '73 and received a diploma of that institution. In 1874 he was admitted to a partnership with J. R. Morton, and this partnership continued until the latter went upon the bench in 1883. During this period the subject of this sketch served a term as city attorney, and was at one time a member of the School Board of Lexington. 1n 1884 he was appointed master commissioner of the Fayette Circuit Court, and this position he held until January l, 1893. He was a commissioner of the Eastern Kentucky Lunatic Asylum for four years, and was president of the Central Bank from its organization until he assumed his duties as judge. In November, 1892, he was elected judge of the district composed of the County of Fayette, with the county seat at Lexington, the term for which he was elected beginning January 1, 1893, and to continue five years. He was married to Miss Bettie Burgin, March 7, 1878. Three children, Nellie Burgin, Mary Shepherd and Virginia, are the result of this union. In politics Judge Parker has always been a Democrat. His parents were John E. Parker of Caroline and Rebecca Shepherd of Spottsylvania County, Virginia. They emigrated to Kentucky in 1832; his mother died in 1855; his father in 1881. When a mere lad John E. Parker served as a soldier in a Virginia regiment in the War of 1812. He was a man of unusual energy, force of character and great courage. He was not prosperous in his business and died poor, but enjoyed the full confidence and respect of his fellow citizens. The subject of this sketch was thrown upon his own resources at an early age. He was named after his grandfather, Watts Parker, a native of Virginia and a soldier in the War of the Revolution. His obituary from Proceedings of the Tenth Annual meeting of the Kentucky State Bar Association (Louisville, KY, 1911) follows: Judge Watts Parker, Circuit Judge of the Twenty-second judicial district of Kentucky, which includes the City of Lexington and County of Fayette, was born in Athens, a hamlet of Fayette County, on the 23rd day of February, 1848. His parents, John and Rebecca Parker, came to Kentucky from Caroline County, Virginia, in 1832, and shortly thereafter settled at Athens. The early scholastic training of Watts Parker was somewhat limited, for the only school he attended before undertaking professional studies was the local country school of the neighborhood in which he lived, and he prosecuted his studies until his fourteenth year, after which time he was forced to engage in business for self support. For a while he attended a course of lectures in the Miami Medical College at Cincinnati, but a lack of funds forced him to return home and again engage in business. Still intent upon entering a professional life, be began the study of law while conducting a store at Athens, and on August 20, 1870, was admitted to the Fayette County Bar, after examination by Judges Robertson and Peters of the Court of Appeals. He did not begin the practice of law immediately, but spent two years more at his old home conducting a store and continuing his studies. In 1872 he located in Lexington and during the winter of 1872-73 he attended lectures in the law college of Kentucky (now Transylvania) University. Among the faculty at that time were John B. Huston, Madison C. Johnson, James O. Harrison and W. C. P. Breckinridge, four of the best lawyers in the history of the Commonwealth. The University conferred upon him the degree of Bachelor of Laws at the close of the law course and in 1874 he began the active practice of his profession in Lexington, soon thereafter forming a partnership with the late Judge Jere R. Morton. This relation was dissolved by the election of Judge Morton to the Circuit bench of the district of which Fayette County was then a part. Judge Morton appointed his former partner to the office of Master Commissioner of the Fayette Circuit Court and this office Parker continued to hold throughout the two terms of Judge Morton's incumbency. In 1892, Judge Morton having declined to stand for reelection, Watts Parker was elected without opposition to fill the office Judge Morton had vacated. This office he held continuously for eighteen years until his death in Lexington, on March 13, 1911. He was re-elected to the office three times, twice on the Democratic ticket and last on a Fusion ticket of Democrats and Republicans; twice being opposed and once without opposition. Three daughters survive Judge Parker, his wife, whose maiden name was Bettie Burgin, having died several years ago. Judge Parker was endowed naturally with a legal mind, and while his opportunities for becoming a great lawyer or a learned judge were limited, he improved them all with excellent results. Like Abraham Lincoln his reading was restricted to the few channels of legal literature that he could explore while struggling for a livelihood. But his keen, analytical mind, reasoning from the fundamental truths he had mastered, almost invariably solved the problems that came before him in accordance with legal principles, and above all, with right and justice. His love of the art of disputation sometimes retarded the progress of the trial of causes when he was sitting, but this was an evidence merely of one of Judge Parker's best characteristics, conservatism, and worked for right and justice in the end. Politically, Judge Parker was a Democrat of the old, conservative, Jeffersonian type-- a Democrat of Democrats. His hold was upon the great common people, of whom he was one. It is a significant fact that his political preferments did not come to him through social or family connections or alliances, for he was not a member of any particular religious sect or a believer in fraternal orders. While easy to approach and always carrying himself modestly, he was not gifted with popular manners, nor was he a "good mixer" or master of the art of propitiating public favor. He was honored with great opportunities for public service because of the love and respect that his people, the great army of voters, bore toward him.
At 24 years of age Bettie became the mother of Eleanor Parker Lexington, Fayette Co., KY, January 5, 1879. At 26 years of age Bettie became the mother of Mary Shepherd Parker Lexington, Fayette Co., KY, October 1, 1880. At 28 years of age Bettie became the mother of Virginia Parker Lexington, Fayette Co., KY, March 1883. Her obituary from The Morning Herald: Mrs. Elizabeth Burgin Parker, wife of Judge Watts Parker, died Saturday night at Denver, Colorado, where she had been for the past seven years on account of ill health. Her death was very sudden and unexpected, resulting from a hemorrhage of the lungs. The deceased was 48 years and 6 months of age yesterday and was taken ill on her birthday, eight years ago. Before her marriage to Judge Watts Parker, she was Miss Elizabeth Burgin. She was born in Madison County but the greater part of her life was spent in this county. She was married in March of 1878. Three children survive her - Mrs Nellie Hopkins, and Misses Mary and Virginia Parker. The three daughters were with her when death came. The news reached this city by telegraph to Judge Jerry Morton yesterday, who told the sad news to the husband. Mrs. Parker was a lovely Christian woman and bore her long suffering with Christian trust and fortitude. There is no better beloved citizen of this city and county than Judge Parker, and he has the deep symtathy of every one. It has not been decided whether the interment will be in this city or in Denver.
