Assuming that we are talking about Dr. Joseph Parry, the composer and educator, he had 3 known sons, two of whom died relatively young, predeceasing their father.
Joseph Haydn Parry was born in Danville, PA about May 1864, and was 15 years old on the 1881 UK census. He died 29 March 1894 in Hampstead, England.I haven't found any record of a marriage for him, although I haven't tried very hard either.
William Sterndale Parry was born about 1872 in Danville, PA and died about 1892 at age 20, in Wales.I doubt he was married.
David Mendelssohn Parry seems the likeliest candidate, but I have no record yet of a marriage.He survived his father, and was listed as a survivor when Dr. Parry died in 1903.
Good luck.I'm still trying to find earlier generations with the hope of proving or disproving a connection to my line.
