From the Parker Genealogy, page 50:231
    Jonas and Lucy made their peace with the Church Sept. 15, 1745, which must have shortly followed their marriage. They removed to Holden, where he purchased a farm and saw-mill, but returned to Lexington after a few years. It is very fitting to state and very creditable to the physical standing of the Parker family, that Jonas is credited by tradition as being the strongest wrestler in the town. He was a woodworker and farmer.
    Jonas Parker was a typical Lexington minute-man. He was tall, well built and possessed great strength. In the celebrated painting, "The Battle of Lexington," which hangs in the Lexington town hall, he appears as the central figure. As he there stands in an erect position awaiting the British charge, the look of determination is well depicted on his handsome face.
    He lived in the centre, next house to that historic residence where lived Rev. Jonas Clark, the patriot minister, and which was the destination of the ride of Paul Revere. Mr. Parker had evidently imbibed a double portion of the Doctor's lofty spirit. When war with England was imminent he was often heard to say that be the consequences what they might and let others do what they pleased, he would never run from the enemy. He was as good as his word, — better. On the morning of the 17th of June, 1775, having loaded his musket, he placed his hat containing powder, wadding and bullets between his feet in readiness for his second charge. As the first fire from the British was harmless the Americans did not reply. At the second volley he was wounded, and sunk upon his knees ; in this condition he discharged his gun. The company of patriots dispersing, his nephew, Ebenezer, who later removed to Princeton, approached Jonas that he might assist his uncle in retreating, but whom he saw was fulfilling his pledge. He insisted that he better retreat with him and thus save his life. But Jonas very forcibly replied that he would never run from the "redcoats." Thus badly wounded, but striving to reload his gun, he was the next moment transfixed by a bayonet upon the spot where he first stood and fell.
