After recieving an email from a friend on where to do some digging I found Amaziah Frank PARSONS on the Roots Web's WorldConnect Project. It states that he was born in July of 1845 in New York. It also states that both of his parents were born in Vermont. I am still not sure of his birth since finding him on the LDS site as born in Illinois. So I am leaving his birth as unknown at this time. My friend also found information that states that he came to Kansas from Michigan. I am waiting on his reply that will tell me the source.
So with this little bit of information on his parents and where he was suppose to of come from , I found in the 1880 United States census of Gaines, Kent, Michigan (on the LDS site) another Amaziah PARSONS who was born in Vermont. It showed him living with the Dias family listed as the father-in-law and a widower. This Amaziah was 82 years of age in 1880, this would of made him born in the year of 1798. He would of been around 47 when Amaziah Franklin was born.
The people that were listed in the household with Amaziah PARSONS were:
John DIAS - as head of house - 53 years and born in New York
Lucretia DIAS - as wife - 46 years and born in Vermont
Florence DIAS - daughter - 21 years and born in Michigan
