Is there anyone working on the CLARK families of Cecil county who may have information on a Samuel Clark I am not sure where in Maryland he was born. But there are quite a few Clark families in the earlier Cecil census and a lot of Southern Lancaster County families have Cecil County origins. I have the following information from census and cemetery listings. 1850 Federal census , Lancaster County Pa, Little Britain township CLARK, Samuel age 58 Occ Blacksmith born in Maryland Wife Mary Ann 37 born Pa all below ditto for born Pa Charolette 14 Uriah 12 Emily 10 Nancy 7 Hetty 5 ? Cammel 3(male) James 1 Cemetery inscriptions from Betel Methodist (now Bethel Mennonite) Cemetery in Fulton township, Lancaster stone CLARK, Mary Ann Died Oct 23, 1881 age 68yr3mo11days stone5 CLARK, Samuel Died July 11, 1857 age 69yrs stone 6 (Children of Samuel and Mary Ann - dates unreadable) CLARK, Eberilla Reynolds CLARK, Jeremiah My main interest is in the maiden name of Samuel's wife Mary Ann. But any information on Samuel may help me find out his wife's maiden name at a later point. I am hoping she may be a Reynolds, also hoping she maybe a sibling to my ancestor who has been a huge BRICK wall Mary Ann's birth year abt 1813 My ancestors David Reynolds was born April 28, 1806 according to a short obit in the Cecil county Whig he was supposed to be a native of Cecil County Died September 23, 1889 Harford County Md Married 1830 by the Mayor in Lancaster to Abrella Metcalf 1809- 1882 The things these families have in common David & Abrella also resided in 1850 in Little Britain township, Lancaster County The name of David & Abrella's first child was Mary Ann Samuel & Mary Ann name a daughter Eberilla Reynolds (Abrella (Metcalf) Reynolds did not have a sister named Mary Ann ) David Reynolds was a wheelwright, but he had at least 1 son who was in the Blacksmith trade as Samuel was. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated Marie Malark
