Hello, Dennis -- Do you happen to know the names of Silas Clark's daughters and granddaughters? I'm endlessly searching for my g-g-grandmother, Maria C. Clark. The info I have says she was b. at Auburn, Cayuga Co., NY, 10 May 1823. As an aside, I did notice on the map at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~springport/pictures48/ 00004856b.jpg that there is a town a short distance to the northwest of Auburn called "Clarksville." I do know her marriage and death information: Maria C. Clark m. 26 Sep 1843 at Henrietta, Monroe Co., NY, Stephen Weeks/Wicks (b. 10 Jan 1820, Henrietta, Monroe Co., NY; d. 16 Dec 1888, Leslie Township, Ingham Co., MI; son of Benjamin Weeks/Wicks and his wife Maria Ann Whitney. Immediately after their marriage, Stephen and Maria, along with Stephen's two brothers, George Washington Weeks/Wicks and William Henry Weeks/Wicks, set out for the wild, untamed forests of lower Ingham Co., MI. The three brothers settled on adjoining parcels of virgin forest approximately 1 mile west of the town of Leslie, Ingham Co., MI. Maria C. (Clark) Weeks d. giving birth to her 9th child, Leslie Township, Ingham Co., MI, 1 Jul 1868. She is buried with her husband, his second wife (Laura Edwina Reynolds), and several children from both of Stephen's marriages at Woodlawn Cemetery, Leslie, Ingham Co., MI. Stephen Weeks was a devout Baptist, so perhaps Maria's family was as well. His obituary says he was a deacon in the Leslie Baptist congregation for many years. I've tried unsuccessfully to find Maria's parents and siblings. Any chance she belongs to your group? Best Regards, Sally J. (Bolster) Holcombe sallyholcombe@mac.com
