> Is this the Leonard Clark who was married To Mary/Mollie Spindle? At one time I thought that I was related to this Clark family. My Leonard Clark though, came from MD and migrated to Granville Co., NC after the Rev. War. You mentioned that there was a Leonard named for this Leonard. What family line did he come down. I understand that your Leonard didn't have a son named Leonard. Jim > > > > Subject: Re: [Clarke-Clark] George W.
