The "Seymour" post of pages 811-813 of this History relates the family history of Carey Clark from RI. One listed grandson of Carey Clark was an Orlando B. Clark. I am a grand daughter of an Orlando J. Clark, 1843 - 1926, son of John Thompson Clark, 1811 - 1885, of Madison CO, NY. J.T. Clark was born in 1811 and m. Elizabeth Blakeslee in Paris , Oneida CO, NY in 1835. Anyone know of any connection between these two Orlandos? We do not have a father for John T. Clark although his mothers name is believed to be Sarah. My Clarks came from RI to Brookfield TWP, Madison, NY about 1810. Thanks for any ideas. Margaret Stewart Carefree, AZ [email protected]

If your Clarks were in and around Knox County in the early 1800s, they may have originated in Georgia.

Dear Clarke listers, The unfortunate happening of earlier today happened to many lists, not just the CLARKE-L. I ask your patience as RootsWeb figures this one out, as several list managers are reporting the same incidence. The address was a phony and several of the posts did not get through! I have forwarded full headers on to the folks at RW so maybe they will be able to ban future posts. I am truely sorry and in the three years I've been here as list manager nothing like this has ever happened. Yes, the person has be unsubbed and tyrell.net put on the reject list.

James owned a livery stbale in New York City in the late 1900's. She brought up her niece, Catherine/Lillian Clarke after Thomas' death. I think this Clarke family was in the United States by 1825.

I've been given an interesting family tidbit and I wonder if, by a stretch, someone might know something about it. My ggg-grandfather, Rev. William CLARKE, was sailing to New Jersey from England in 1830 with his wife Martha, and three children. They were supposedly going to meet up with relatives already in New Jersey. There was a storm and they were either forced ashore or diverted to Prince Edward Island and they stayed there instead of proceeding to the US. Presumably they would have written the NJ people to announce the change of plans. Are there any New Jersey Clarkes with this in the family folklore? For that matter, are there any Prince Edward Island Clarkes here? Thank you, Fred Clarke

Hello Clarke families, Here hoping some one can help me, I'm looking for Eliza Thomas b. march 10 1858 in Black water,Cooper Mo. Her parents are unknown, her mother died when she a child and her father went to war. Know one knew what happened to Eliza during the time she was a child. I found her living in the Home of Mary Clark 37 and her family which included son Benjamin 18 daughter Mary 3. and three Afro-American servants named Eliza Marshall 56, Benjamin Marshall 15 and Leonard Monroe 12. I don't know if this was Eliza's family or not the census didn't say if they were related. If anyone knows of Eliza Thomas or this Clarke family please let me know. Eliza is my ggg-grandmother. Thank you, Jennie Durao

I am new to this list and hoping to find my missing link to get over or through this brick wall. My 4th great grandparents were James Clark and Margaret Trimble. I am searching for 1. James Clark's birth date and birth place? 2. His date of death and where-a will? and 3. Who are his parents? Any of these would be wonderful. James Clark lived in Harrison Co., OH for some time in the late 1700s early 1800s and maybe Richland Co., Ohio where he owned some land, but died maybe ,in Washington Co., PA before 1829? In 1829 a deed made to James Clark (the son) for land in Richland Co., OH was deeded to him from his brothers and sisters. I would suspect land left in James Clark's will to his children. Children (as named in the deed of April 4, 1829) of James Clark and Margaret Trimble are: 1. James (in 1829 living on the land deeded to him in Richland Co., OH) 2. Matthew b. 1800 m. Jane Barr, d. 1852 in Cadiz, Harrison Co., Ohio (same 1829) 3. Samuel m. Jane Hawthorne (living in Washington Co., PA in 1829) 4. Joseph (living in Washington Co., PA in 1829) 5. Thomas m.
