Lee, Joe, Edward A.... You tend to have my ancestral names; but can anyone connect me with my mystery family of Clark & Boyds? In regard to Alexander CLARK b: 1770-1776 SC and Nancy Agnes fMcGaw SC...7 children.. do you have any more information on the descendants of their children? Wm, Mary, ALEXANDER & JOHN? Is there any connection of them in Canada? Scotland? or New England? I am still searching for my ALEXANDER CLARK, b:ca 1844, Scotland? married: Place unknown. MARY BOYD, b:28 Oct 1850, Middle Church, Paisley, Renfrew, Scotland. Mary was D/O: John BOYD ,b:ca 1811 to 29, place unk.& Mary GUTHRIE, b: 27 Oct 1829, Paisley, Renfrew, Scot. Mary GUTHRIE was D/O: William GUTHRIE and Mary NEIL, perhaps Renfrew, Scot. Need to find the Parents, Ancestors, Siblings, Emigration etc on ALEXANDER CLARK. KNOWN FACTS: ALEXANDER CLARK & MARY BOYD had a daughter: Mary CLARK, b: 10 Oct 1872, Grantham, Lincoln Co. Ontario, Canada (near St. Catherine, Ontario, Can.) (Per Birth Register.) The Birth Register stated that Mary BOYD was living in Grantham, Lincoln Co. with Her Parents on 1871 Ont. Census; and Alexander CLARK was in Merritton, Lincoln Co. Ont. Can. (NO MARRIAGE RECORD FOUND.) (Assume marriage ca 1871.) Did not find on 1871 Census..unless he may be the one with close matching criteria in North Middlesex, Ontario, Can. Later, THEY had at least one Son: My Grandfather: William Alexander CLARK, b: Feb 1877, Merritton, Lincoln Co. Ont. Can. Probably had other Children. My Grandfather, emigrated from Niagara Falls, Ont. Can. to Buffalo, Erie co. NY on 1 Apirl 1879 via NY Central Railway. (I assume that he traveled with his Parents or other relatives...as he would have been 2 years old. ) Know that Alexander CLARK & Mary appeared on the 1880 MASS Census in Attleboro, Bristol Co. MA with 3 children in household: Mary, ca 7 yrs; Wm ca 4 yrs; and a John Clark listed as "Other."

Hi Joe, We've corresponded before, but it might have been a while ago. I have a James CLARK/E on my family tree - by way of the Adoptive family of my grandmother. James is my most "solidly built, concrete-block walls." A quick summary is that he shows up in Little Compton, RI, around 1825-1827. He married in nearby Westport, MA, in 1829. He fathers a child in Westport in 1836. During the 1840's, he "disappears" and is not in the 1850 Census with his wife. He "might" be the James CLARK/E who got on a ship as a "greenhand" in New Bedford, MA, in 1845 due out for a 4-year voyage to the Indian Ocean. This James "deserted" in NSW, Australia. No one has laid claim to him in regards to New England and New York families. And, I have no other information on him. There is always the possibility he arrived from Canada or Europe in the 1820's; I just don't know. Thank you for your time. Betty (near Lowell, MA) FYI: In 1829, James CLARK/E married Rhoda (MANCHESTER) LAVARE of Westport, MA. Her first husband was Epaphroditus LAVARE, a Mariner, originally from VA. She had three LAVARE children, and then a daughter, Mary Ann CLARK. Rhoda's parents were reportedly a MANCHESTER / TOMPKINS couple from Westport, MA. The daughter, Mary "Molly" CLARK, b1836 Westport, grew up and married John DEXTER from Killingly, CT, and that is where they lived their married life. As a couple in their mid-50's, they strangely left their home and moved to Boston. In 1892, they adopted a baby girl, Age 3. By then, they were in their late 50's. Both my "distant cousin" and I believe that the little girl, Mary Anna Clark DEXTER, was either the daughter or granddaughter of Mrs. "Molly" DEXTER (without benefit of either husband). So, my grandmother, reportedly a "foundling" on the streets of Boston in the winter of 1889 - just possibly might be a descendant of Gilbert MANCHESTER of Westport, MA, via "a possible scandal" in Killingly, CT, in the "summer of 1888." .

Is your John Clark, Jr. married to Margaret D., or is that a sister? What I know that I do have is a Jesse Clark, b. Sept 1823/1824 (according to census records he was born in West Virginia.) His mother's name was Margaret, born in Virginia (again, according to census), abt. 1801-1805. Margaret died 14 Feb 1899, Greenbrier Run, Doddridge Co., West Virginia. Her husband's name (and Jesse's father) was John Clark, according to her tombstone. She is buried beside her son Jesse and his wife Charlotte Fitz-Randolph Clark. I would assume that the John Clark I am looking for was born in New Jersey about 1800, but I have yet to find a census where he is living with Margaret and Jesse. The earliest census I show them on has Jesse married to Charlotte and Margaret living with them as a widow. Any clues greatly appreciated.

This is where I am hitting my obstacles: Here is what I have John Clark born about 1740 in County Derry Ireland That is assume because that is where he immigrated from Howv ever Clark is not a Irish surname and Count Derry was primarily the recipient of English to work the Mannered English farms and estates so he could have come from England or Scotland to Derry to the colonies. e was married to a Susan last name unknown born abt 1786 in Maryland. They had two sons Henry B, John Clark, Jr. and Margaret D. All settled in Allegheny County, PA this county was subdivided into many other counties one which they had removed to was Armstrong County Town of Leechburg. Have very good record form this point forward I I can help you maybe you can reciprocate. Sincerely: Charles J. Clark, Jr.(Jim) 6419 Barfield Dr. Dallas, TX 75252
