Bush Parker. One of the most prominent and influential, as well as useful
citizens, of Hamilton, Ohio, is Bush Parker, safety director of Norwood,
Ohio. He was born in Cincinnati, November 22, 1872, a son of Edward J. and Mary
M. (Leslie) Parker, the former of whom was born in Clevedon, Somerset, England,
and the latter in Canada. Edward J. Parker came to the USA in 1864,
and settled in Cincinnati, where he became associated with the Aetna Fire
Insurance Company. He was a member of this company for nearly forty-five years,
and at the time of his death, was one of the best loved and respected men of
this community. Bush Parker, whose name is the caption of this review, received
his early education in the public schools of his city, and later attended the
Woodward High School, from which he was graduated with the class of 1890. After
finishing his studies, Mr. Parker accepted a position as manager of the Lyceum
Bureau Talent, for J. L. Shearer, of Cincinnati. After remaining in this
position for several years, he became associated with the Adams Express Company,
and later accepted a position with the Aetna Fire Insurance Company with whom he
remained four years. Mr. Parker then removed to Norwood where he became
interested in the real estate and insurance business. Some time later he gave up
this business in order to accept a position as State agent in Ohio for the
Orient Fire Insurance Company, and filled this office for nearly three years. He
then resigned and went to New York where he became associated with the Montray
Realty Company. In 1916, Mr. Parker returned to Norwood, and on January 1, 1920,
became Safety Director of that city. Mr. Parker holds this responsible loffice
at the present time, with ability, sterling honesty, and high integrity. The
esteem in which Mr. Parker is held, furnishes lessons to the coming generation,
which prove the inevitable result of the virtue of ambition, perseverance,
steadfastness of purpose, and tireless industry. In politics, Mr. Parker is a
stanch Republican, and he takes a deep and active interest in the affairs of the
State and Nation. Fraternally, Mr. Parker is a valued member of the various
Masonic bodies, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, the Exchange Club,
the Automobile Club of Cincinnati, and the Goose Club of Cincinnati. On the I4th
day of November, 1899, Mr. Parker was united in marriage with Miss Josephine P.
Koverman, a daughter of Mrs. Catherine Koverman, of Norwood, Ohio. Mrs. Parker
was born in Cincinnati, and there received her early education. She is a lady of
true refinement and culture, and is loved by her many friends throughout her
community. To Mr. and Mrs. Parker has been born one daughter, Loretta; who
resides with her parents at home.
