For those of you who may not be aware of it, there is a book HERO OF HORNET'S NEST, A Biorgraphy of Elijah Clark, 1733 to 1799. by Louise Frederick Hays, and printed in 1946. It contains a picture of Elijah Clarke. I am still looking for info on his son-in-law, Benajah Smith. Evea Bachnak

Sorry, folks. There is a total of 13 mismatches between Elijah's descendant and Thomas Clark's descendants out of 37 markers tested. There is no possibility of a connection within recorded history. Fay Clark

Fay: Are you looking for info on a Harvey Clark. Maybe II can help. Dick Clarke dotdickclarke@aol.com

Fay, Not having seen the picture I will have to ask. Does he have what we call a "cleft" chin? -- sort of an indentation in the middle? That is a trait in our CLARK line. I have been told that one descendant of Elijah Clark has participated in the DNA project. I am taking the word of someone else on this. I do think it is always better to have two "known" descendants pariticipate in the DNA study just to verify that there wasn't another father involved along the way. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fay Clark" <gmcflc@bellsouth.net> To: <CLARKE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, August 07, 2005 5:01 PM Subject: [Clarke-Clark] Elijah Clarke b. 1742, s/o John Clarke of Anson Co NC >A fellow Clark researcher just e-mailed me a portrait image of Elijah >Clarke > of Georgia with the following caption: > > "Among the few heroes of the Revolutionary War from Georgia, Elijah Clarke > (sometimes spelled Clark) was born in 1742, the son of John Clarke of > Anson > County, North Carolina.

Hello, Dennis -- I saw your message about the "northern route," and wanted to see if we had any matches. My brick wall is my g-g-grandmother, Maria C. (Clark) Weeks. I don't know anything about her parents or her siblings. She was supposedly born 10 May 1823 at Auburn, Cayuga Co., NY. My source for this info is the "Whitney Database" online --- Maria's mother-in-law was a Whitney. Maria C. Clark m. Stephen Weeks/Wicks 26 Sep 1843 at Henrietta, Monroe Co., NY. They came immediately to Leslie, Ingham Co., MI where they settled on a quarter-section of virgin forest. She gave birth to 9 children between 1844--1860, and d. at Leslie, 1 Jul 1862. She is buried at Woodlawn Cemetery, Leslie, along with her husband and his second wife, Laura Edwina (Reynolds) Weeks. I hope to hear from you about Maria C. Clark. Best Regards, Sally J. (Bolster) Holcombe sallyholcombe@mac.com ******************************************************** g-g-granddaughter of Stephen Weeks & his wife, Maria C. Clark g-granddaughter of Walter Whitney Weeks & his wife, Sarah Emma Childs granddaughter of Lon Bolster & his wife, Mabel Eva Weeks daughter of Robert Bolster & his wife, Marion Lucille Webb ********************************************************

I can't answer the question about a CLARK DNA study for other areas of the US. I'm sure there must be some. Contact the manager of the study I referred you to -- I'm sure they could tell you. Also, I understand there is a rootsweb list for DNA studies. I'm no expert on this -- just have appreciated the results.

We have three brothers for whom we can't find the parents -- Eli, John, and Henry known to be in Burke Co. GA about 1802. Through the DNA study we proved that all three descend from a common ancestor which probably means they were the brothers that we only knew about through family lore. Now, we are waiting for someone else to match them since family lore also said there were 8 brothers in total plus some sisters. Join us in the search for matches.

Hi Dennis, I too would like to enter a Clark DNA project, I am very much a Clark, but on the female side of my family. My grandmother was Mary Emma Clark born 1873 at Hope, Indiana to Margaret and George Clark from Philadelphia, Pa. Her youngest sister Helen, also married a Clark, whom were raised by their Aunt Emma along with her own two children after their mother died of TB. So I have two Clark families and know little about either, George Clark's father, "went away to war and never returned". His name was said to be Alfred George Clark, of Pa. Mary Emma Clark married Fred Place at Hope, Indiana and later moved to the Clark Homestead at Keene, Wabaunsee Co. Kansas, where the two Clark Families were raised. Does this sound like any of your family Glen Place On Mon, 1 Aug 2005 10:24:21 -0400 Dennis Clark <clarkd@lcc.edu> writes: > Greetings, > I would love to join a Clark DNA Project, but, my Clark > line took the northern states route of CT-NJ-NY-OH-MI.

Greetings, I would love to join a Clark DNA Project, but, my Clark line took the northern states route of CT-NJ-NY-OH-MI. In looking at the description of the DNA Project that you attached it suggests that it is for Clarks in Colonial Virginia. If anyone knows of a Clark Project that has participants (ancestry) from the areas that I mentioned I surely would desire to learn about project.

We have three brothers for whom we can't find the parents -- Eli, John, and Henry known to be in Burke Co. GA about 1802. Through the DNA study we proved that all three descend from a common ancestor which probably means they were the brothers that we only knew about through family lore. Now, we are waiting for someone else to match them since family lore also said there were 8 brothers in total plus some sisters. Join us in the search for matches.
