I have discovered some more clues about Margaret Clark while researching in Kentucky. I have included the old information with the new. Margaret Clarke married Joseph Fogle 14 April 1801 the bond was posted by Joseph Fogle and Joseph Clark they were married by S.T. Badin, a Catholic priest. >From the LaRue County death register for Margaret Fogle died at the age of 92 on 5 December 1859 and her parents were Thomas & Mary Clark. Based on all the census records in which Margaret is listed she was more than likely 86 when she died and not 92. She is head of household in 1850 listed as age 77 born in Maryland. The 1810-1840 census age groups support the age of 77 in the 1805 census. Form the depositions of a Washington County Circuit court case Fogle v Fogle heirs the following is excepted: Note the Fogle is Joseph Fogle the Fogle Heirs are the children of Adam Fogle who murdered his wife in 1802 and took his own life in the winter of 1804. Deposition of Richard Riddle 12 September 1807, packet # 142 Taken at George McKay’s tavern in Springfield, Washington County, Kentucky Saith that he remembers a conversation taking place between Joseph Fogle and this deponent at Jonathon Rineys tavern last October Court day… The deponent further saith that he heard the defendant [Joseph Fogle] ask the plaintiff of his Negro fellow named Jerry did not frequently carry meat to his present wife [Margaret Clark]as is now but was not then married, answer he did. Signed Richard B Riddle Deposition of Robert H Fogle 27 May 1809, packet # 142 Taken at the home of John Calhoon in Springfield, Washington County, Kentucky Questioned by Hammett for Defendants …. Question: Did you hear your father say that there was meat and whisky carried away to the widow Clark before the partnership broke and that he heard his father say that he help the Negro man Jerry up with a bag of meat in the night to carry away on Suter’s horse and followed after and said whence it went? Answer: I heard him my father say that he believed that there was whiskey carried away and that he followed the Negro man Jerry and saw that he carried the meat to Lizzy CLARKS Question: Did you not see a pewter pint pot that Joseph Fogle had made a noise about in the cellar at this Widow CLARK? Answer: At the time Joseph Fogle moved I was helping him and saw the pewter pot in the cellar that the noise was made about. >From Webb's Catholicity in Kentucky p.30 "Joseph Clark was one of the most exemplary members of Holy Cross congregation. He lived on a farm adjoining that of Phillip Lee, and almost in sight of Holy Cross Church" >From Marion County Deed Book 6, Page 129 Martha A Richardson wife of R. J Richardson purchases land from John Lee. Land is located next to land RJ purchased from Joseph CLARK. Note R. J. Richardson was the grandson of the Margaret CLARK that married Joseph Fogle. >From the information I have collected I am reasonably certain that there is a relationship of Margaret Clark to the Joseph Clark in the Pottingers Creek area. And that she was probably living with the Widow Clark. Based on when Joseph Fogle would have been courting Margaret there are one of two possibilities for the Widow Clark. 1. She was a widow prior to the marriage of Margaret & Joseph in 1801 or 2. She was a widow prior to the deposition of Robert Fogle dated 27 May 1809. I don't think there is enough information in the deposition to determine if the Widow Clark and Lizzy Clark are the same person. The Joseph Clark that died in 1796 doesn't list a Margaret Clark as his daughter. If anyone has any thoughts on this it would be appreciated. Thank you Ann Gilchrest

Father Badin was one of the founders of Notre Dame University, in 1842, I believe. Where did the marriage of Margaret Clark take place? My grgrgrandmother, Monica Brown, wed her first cousin B B Reynolds near Bardstown in 1813.
