Melanie, I have a gggrandfather, Dutchy Clark(e) in my family. He had 2 children Eliza and Bertha. Eliza was born in 1887 and Bertha about 4 years before both in Indianapolis, Marion Co, Indiana. Dutchy is the only name he is known by, and birth records show Dutchy too. He died while living in Marion Co in a swimming accident sometime in the very early 1900's. Does your Alonso have brothers?
