Getting your rifle rebarreled is the easy part of what your wanting to do, and any gunsmith with a decent amount of experience should be able to do it. I would suggest you purchase a Criterion M1 barrel, and I would make sure to retain the original barrel.
Parkerizing is another story. There are very few people or companies that have the desire, experience, or equipment to do it and do it right. I don't know the condition of your rifles, but be aware that collectors want to see patina - not rust - on a rifle. Having your rifles reparkerized will kill any collector value they might have had.
A person who is not inwardly prepared for the use of violence against him is always weaker than the person committing the violence. - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago
