This is a family that settled in Ohio ca 1870, after immigrating from Somersetshire/Wiltshire area. They have remained a small family. Some of the family settled in Richwood, OH, where Donald Dean (1906-2002) and Chet (1909-1907) Parrott started the Parrott Implement Company.

Their ancestors can be traced back to a Michael Parrett born in Somerset in the mid 1600's. This family is known as the 'Parrotts of Nunney,' as the family properties in the 1800's were in Nunney, Somerset. This family's DNA is a distant (consistent with a 3-century separation) match to the Parrott family that appeared in Talbot Co., Maryland in the mid 1600's. Thus, it appears the Parrotts of Nunney were not the first of their family to make it across the Atlantic!

Notes: DEATH Of Charles Parrott
Venerable Citizen of Dover Township Has passed Away to His Long Rest.

A long and honorable life was ended Tuesday evening by the death of Charles Parrott Sr., who had been a resident of Dover township since the Fall of 1870. His demise was caused by old age, he being 89 years, 6 months and 20 days, almost a score in excess of man's allotted time. Up to the beginning of his last iilness, three weeks ago, Mr. Parrott has enjoyed fairly good health, and he retained his faculties until the end, passing peacefully to sleep shortly before eight o'clock Tuesday evening.

Mr. Parrott was a sturdy son of old England. He was born January 7, 1820, near the town of Frome, in Somersetshire, in which vicinity is the famous Stonehenge, which historians tell us is the ruins of an old structure erected by Druids, many centuries ago. Since the earliest known record the Parrotts have been farmers, and this was the life occupation of Charles, both before and after coming to America.

Mr. Parrott was married February 7 1853 to Mary Bown, a sister of the late Charles Bown who in 1873 moved with his family to America, three years after the Parrotts had loated here. In 1867 the Parrotts took up their residence on a farm in County Cork, ireland, where they lived three years, coming to America in the Spring of 1870. After spending the Summer on a farm near Bellepoint the Parrotts located in Dover township, on the farm where Mr. Parrott died. His wife's death occured there six years ago.

Mr. Parrott is survived by seven children, thirty grandchildren and one great grandchild. The children are, Mrs. Elizabeth Myers, Charles Jr., Mrs. George Rittenhouse, Wiliiam, Mrs. W.C. Vigor and Mrs. A.H. LInville, all of Union county; also Mrs. L.M. Hallett, of Somersetshire, England, who spent five years in this county, but who went back to England in 1875 to care for her grandmother Bown, and was married there. Charles Parrott Jr. is a resident of Marysville and was last Fall elected to his second term as clerk of the courts.

The deceased is also survived by one brother and one sister, viz. Edwin Parrott of Warminster, Wilsshire, England, and Mrs. Anna Reins, of Tenby, Pembrokeshire, Wales. They are the youngest of the family.

The funeral of Mr. Parrott will be held at 10 o'clock Thursday, in the M.E. church at New Dover, with which he had identified for a number of years. The pastor, Rev. Given, will officiate. Interment will be made at Oakdale cemetery, Marysville, where the wife is buried. At the request of Mr. Parrott six of his grandsons will be the pall bearers, viz.Joseph Low, Charles Myers, William P. Vigor, Walter Rittenshouse, Charles W. Parrott and John Parrott.

J. Ray Parrott graduated from Magnetic Springs High School. He was a resident of Hardin County for 44 years before passing away in 1988. He was a grain and dairy farmer, known for his Brown Swiss cattle. He served on the Hardin County Fair Board and was the speed superintendent for 30 years. The fair restarted in 1939 and built new buildings and facilities after World War II. When it came time to design and build the race track, Parrott went back to the Delaware County Fair where he previously served on the board, and saw to it that the Hardin County track was built with the same design as the Little Brown Jug. It was under his leadership that that the Little Brown Jug, one of the legs in the pacers' triple crown was begun in 1947. Parrott spent many hours year around to maintain and improve the race facilities at the Hardin County Fairgrounds where he was recognized for his efforts as the 1983 fair honoree.

Parrott was a member of the Hardin County Trotting Club and the Dairy Service Unit. He was elected for seven three-year terms to the Hardin County Fair Board. His wife Opal traveled with him by car to California in 1922 where he worked in the central valley preparing land for production in what has to become a rich agricultural area. Parrott was involved in growing popcorn and developing a market for it in the Delaware and Marion County areas. This market later became the Wyandot Popcorn Company. His involvement in the dairy industry allowed him to participate in a program where cattle were flown into Havana, Cuba where they were taken to be shown and sold. Parrott also served on a committee which established a statewide 4-H program on Standardbred horses. He was also active in the Hardin County Men's Garden Club and the First United Methodist Church, where he served as a Sunday School Superintendent who made sure he got the milking done early so his family could attend church together.

By Ally Lanasa, 26 Aug 2021

Ag-Pro Companies officially acquired Parrott Implement Co., 396 E. Blagrove St. in Richwood, recently.

Parrott Implement was a local, family-owned John Deere agricultural, commercial and residential equipment dealer for 75 years. The Parrott family purchased the John Deere Implement Co. from Tom Navin in January 1946.

Brothers Don and Chet Parrott opened Parrott implement Jan. 7, 1946. The brothers purchased the John Deere dealership about one-half block west of N. Franklin Street.

Don's son, Bill, became the manager with assistance from Charles Solits in 1966 when the founders retired. Bill moved the company to its current location on the east edge of Richwood. Since then, the 50,000 square-foot facility has continued to grow.

Bill's children, Donnie Parrott, Jean Parrott Smith and Rita Parrott Monroe, and son-in-law, Damon Crabtree, helped run operations over the years. Rita Parrott Monroe's son, Justin Monroe, also continues to work for the dealership as the parts consultant.

DOROTHY BALLARD PARROTT
May 02, 2008 at 10:44 pm

Dorothy Ballard Parrott, 101, died Thursday, May 1, 2008, at her residence in Leesburg Township.

She gave her life to the Lord in 1922 and remained a lifelong devoted member of Magnetic Springs United Methodist Church, having served in many of the church, Sunday school and women's society offices, including Springfield District WSCS officer, past president of the Magnetic Springs Women's Service Club and the Union County Homemakers Club, as well as volunteering many hours in school and community activities.

She believed in education, having begun her schooling at age 4 and graduating at age 16 from Magnetic Springs High School.

When her mother died when Mrs. Parrott was age 14, she assumed the role as mother and raised her brothers as her first family.

Later, she attended and became a graduate of Ohio University, with course work at Ohio Wesleyan University. While at Ohio University, she was a member of a championship field hockey team. In later years she said that "coming from the farm, I could run like a deer."

She taught school in Delaware County until she married, as married women were not permitted to teach in those days. She saw that each of her own children became college graduates, and with her husband established scholarships at North Union High School and individually helped provide an education for several other people.

In her middle years, she wrote several articles which were published.

Encouraging her progeny to better themselves, she was known as the "cheerleader" of her family. She will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by her family, relatives and a host of friends.

She was born Nov. 2, 1906, to the late Grant and Lana Grieble Ballard. She and her loving husband, Donald D. Parrott, were married April 4, 1931, in Fletcher, by the Rev. Harry B. Parrott Jr., brother of Donald. He also predeceased her, as did three brothers, William, Stanley and George Eugene; and a great-grandchild, Brittany Crabtree.

She leaves three children, Kathryn Kay (John) Bishop, William L. (Sally) Parrott and Richard E. (May) Parrott; grandchildren, Mark (Anamaria) Bishop, Kendra (Stephen) Hamby, Mary Jean (Nevin) Smith, Rita (James) Monroe, Donald (Connie) Parrott, Anne (Damon) Crabtree, Karen (Rick) Rausch, Robert Parrott, Neil (Sally) Parrott and Angela (Damon) Osborne; 21 great-grandchildren; and one great-great-grandchild.

Funeral services will be held Monday at 11 a.m. at Magnetic Springs United Methodist Church with the Rev. Stephen Hamby and Pastor Mo Dunn officiating. Friends may call Sunday from 2 to 6 p.m. at Stofcheck-Ballinger Funeral Home, Richwood.

Memorial contributions may be made to the Donald D. and Dorothy B.

==================
Richard E. Parrott | 1934-2017: Union County judge bucked GOP bigwigs, didn't suffer fools
By Holly Zachariah, The Columbus Dispatch

Posted Jul 31, 2017 at 4:15 PM
Updated Jul 31, 2017 at 4:15 PM

So the story goes, when Richard E. Parrott was a prosecutor \emdash long before he became a Common Pleas Court judge \emdash Union County had a bit of an organized gambling problem.

And maybe someone approached Parrott and might have once suggested that perhaps he should just look the other way.

Didn't happen, but those who knew him best say it was yet another example of his refusal to bend to pressure, no matter how great it might it be or how powerful the people who applied it.

"He wasn't afraid of anybody or anything," said his son, Marysville attorney Bob Parrott. "He never backed down."

Parrott, who retired from the Union County Common Pleas Court bench in 2009 after serving 18 years, died early Sunday at 83. He had been dealing with a number of health issues since winter, his son said, but had a terrific day Friday. He ate dinner at Bravo, his favorite restaurant, and watched his beloved Cincinnati Reds play on television. He then lost consciousness in his sleep. He was taken to the Ohio State University's Wexner Medical Center, where he died.

Parrott was born and raised in Union County, graduated from Ohio State and earned his law degree from Ohio Northern University. He had been a private-practice attorney and prosecutor before taking a municipal court judgeship in 1982 and moving to the Common Pleas bench in 1991.

Known for running his courtroom with an iron fist and demonstrating equal intolerance of nonsense to prosecutors and defense attorneys alike, he mostly toiled in the obscurity of a rural-county judgeship. Until 1997, that is. That's when, in the face of great public pressure from both state and local office holders in his own party, he sentenced the chief of staff of then-Gov. George V. Voinovich to a work-release county jail term.

The now-deceased Paul Mifsud, the man who was Voinovich's right-hand man, had pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges of obstructing official business and violating state ethics law in connection with a home remodel in Union County, where he lived.

When Parrott sentenced Mifsud he berated the politically connected powerful people who had sent letters to the court asking for leniency. He called it "influence peddling." He said later in an interview with The Dispatch that it was a difficult time, but that he had no regrets.


Current Common Pleas Judge Don Fraser succeeded Parrott, and said he will miss his old friend's guidance and resolve.

"He didn't hesitate to tell you if you were wrong, but he applied that equally," Fraser said. "He was a tremendous mentor to me."

Upon retiring, Parrott never really looked back. He guided historical tours at the county courthouse, followed the Buckeyes as a rabid fan, and traveled the world.

"He learned to enjoy life and he was happy," Fraser said.

Parrott is survived by his wife, May; their children, grandchildren, a great-grandchild and two siblings.

In keeping with his wishes, there will be no public service, but the Union County Bar Association will honor him with a private memorial in August.

Notes: Donald Gwynn "Donnie" Parrott, 50 of Magnetic Springs, passed away unexpectedly Friday morning, April 28, 2017 at the Memorial Hospital in Marysville.

He was born November 9, 1966 in Kenton to William and Sally (Sanders) Parrott, and they both survive.

On February 24, 1990, he married the love of his life, Connie Colvin in Marysville, and she survives.

Donnie loved life, it's as simple as that. He instilled into his children how it was to truly live and enjoy life to the fullest with no regrets and with hearts full of adventure. He enjoyed taking annual hunting trips to Wyoming with his father. He was a man who never met a stranger; those who didn't know him knew of him and how truly great a man he was. He loved his wife and kids unconditionally and was truly at home when they were all together. He enjoyed coaching his kids in their various activities, including North Union Junior Football.

He was a lifetime member of Magnetic Springs United Methodist Church where he had served in various leadership positions. A 1985 graduate of North Union High School, Donnie earned his Bachelor's Degree from Wilmington College before returning to Richwood in 1989 to join the family business, Parrott Implement. He started at the bottom, learning every aspect of the business, working his way through the ranks to presently successfully managing the company.

He was a very active member and supporter of various clubs and associations in the community, especially, North Union Ag and sports. Most notably, he and his family have been instrumental in organizing and supporting NUAC, which benefits athletic facilities at North Union. Donnie was the guy who made things happen. He was a member of The Eagles and The Elks of Marysville. He truly enjoyed spending time with his many friends, golfing and genuinely enjoyed his time with them. Donnie truly understood how precious and special time was when spent with those that he loved. He went above and beyond in any endeavors that he would tackle, not to mention being a great salesman, a "social" golfer, and farmer.

Donnie was born and raised in Magnetic Springs south of the creek, which is where he learned the values and morals of being a selfless person willing to help anybody without a question asked. He will truly be missed as not only a loving husband, phenomenal father, and the best friend that anyone could be lucky enough to have. Donnie had hundreds of sayings that people enjoyed, but many will remember Donnie saying with a wink and a smile, "You used to be fun."
