Hi Marilyn... Yes, I for one, am interested in these Clark lines born before 1800. I have some of them, but may have them duplicated based on other sources. Are all The Williams you mention different people or could some of them be the same but different wives? Have you tried to tie the families together with land records? or church records? That may be the common link to try to keep them in the correct lineage. Let me know of any new info or if you need me to redearch what I have in my data base...
