HI Always check for sources f or old story books and Histories. Did you check the census records? townrecords, Church records should help you both resolve this ... I watch Clark as a collateral so thought I would make comment.

My data shows Sophonia BENNETT (b 8 Dec 1815) to have married Horatio Nelson HAMMOND on 2 Sept. 1840 and having seven children. Her parents were Andre BENNETT (b abt 1788) and Rachel ORCUTT (1785-1871)My data comes from "Rushford & Rushford People" by Helen J WHITE GILBERT published 1910 pg 64-65. > Now, this doesn't make it so but there is obviously a conflict. > I have no data on Amazi CLARK non do I find him in the "History of Allegany County" by John MINARD pub 1896 or the "History of Cattaraugus County" by Adams pub 1893. Again, that doesn't mean he wasn't here, as these histories are by no means complete. > I'd be interested in knowing more about this CLARK family so I might better connect them to this area. > As always I'm happy to share any all data. > > Sidney Emmons, Historian, Town of Lyndon, Catt Co.,NY > > Important Note: > The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
