Trow owners in the Forest of Dean (General)

I would be grateful if anybody can tell me if there is a listing of "trow" owners in the Forest. Especially any that traded up the River Severn to the West Midlands Black Country. The period would be from around 1650 to 1850. The name(s) I am looking for are Parkes/Parke/Park/Parks/Sparkes and Sparks. There may be variations on these names. I suspect that it would be coal or iron ore northbound. If anyone has any details on any of these families in the Forest area beside the excellent Parish Records the information would also be appreciated.
