Theodore Parker war ein energischer Transzendentalist, der sich dem Studium, der Predigt und dem sozialen Handeln widmete und sich dabei auf die Natur des Menschen und die Religion als integralen Bestandteil des Menschseins konzentrierte. Seine Arbeit, von der Übersetzung religiöser Texte bis zur Kritik gesellschaftlicher Ungerechtigkeiten, spiegelte sein tiefes Engagement wider, Glauben mit dem täglichen Leben zu verbinden. Obwohl er kein origineller Denker war, zeichnete er sich durch die Synthese und Präsentation der Ideen anderer aus, wodurch er sein Publikum bereicherte. Seine spätere Hinwendung zur sozialen Reform, insbesondere zur Abschaffung der Sklaverei, zeigte sein unermüdliches Streben nach einer gerechteren Gesellschaft.

Branch #2 - Olive Branch (Mary and George Soule's 6th Great Granddaughter) The "Olive" branch wanders through the Holy Lands until about 2,200 BC when they find their way into France. They then return to the Holy lands and Asia for a few centuries before travelling into Europe and Germany (Saxony) around the time of the birth of Christ. From Germany they later made their way back to France settling into and ruling the Normandy Region. In 1066 the two Soule lines would find themselves together at the Battle of Hastings. After winning the battle (Another relative was instrumental, details inside) they continued to build forts, castles and such and lived happily ever after (well almost for ever after) as the ruling class of England
