Talk:Charlie Parker

Family members info

While doing some research of 1930 census records I came across Charlie Parker Jr and his parents Charles Sr and Addie in the 1930 census living on W34 st Kansas City.

https://www.familysearch.org/search/film/004951783?i=14&cc=1810731.

Ages recorded are: Sr. 41 years, Addie 32 years, Jr 9 yrs, and the age of his parents at their first marriage as 27 (Charles) and 18 (Addie), so they were married in about 1916.

I somehow ended up looking at the Findagrave entry for Charlie Parker then his family. His entry shows a photo of him interred next to his mother who died in 1967. The entry includes links to the entry for Chan Berg (1925-1999), and a son Leon Francis (1938-2004), but no mention of Baird who is included as his son in this article. I'm putting this here because somebody ho has more than a passing interest might want to dig around and find records for Leon Francis Parker that establishes his parentage for inclusion in this article, also for something more official that establishes the parentage of Baird. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:EA01:1090:FD6E:1026:8434:5BF3 (talk) 08:24, 24 November 2018 (UTC)

Speaking of which, who are the heirs to his estate? Who gets the royalties that would have gone to Charlie Parker?Dogru144 (talk) 05:00, 15 May 2022 (UTC)

Charlie Parker Records

There was a record label using his name: Charlie Parker Records, active from 1961 to 1965. Recordings by the late Parker and other noteworthy jazz musicians appeared on that label. Does this not suffice an article on the record label?Dogru144 (talk) 22:37, 14 May 2022 (UTC)
