Susan, Wm.C. Stewart's 1800 Census Analysis has several entries for Clark(s) and Clarke(s). He seems to treat them as one and the same. Could your John B. have been Bolen (Bolin) Clark(e). He is in the 1800 census: p. 14 00100-00100-00 p. 58 John Clark 00010-11010-00 He mentions Micajah Clarke * Bowling of Pickens doubtless were of the family of Christopher Clarke of Hanover (Louisa Co.) VA who died 28 May 1754, but the writer (Wm. C. Stewart) has not traced the relationship. Now, I certainly do not want to put a damper on Mr. Stewart's work. It is an excellent inquiry with results. I do have trouble sometimes with his "leaps of faith." When I bought my copy of his work in 1968, I wrote to him and we carried on a correspondence over a period of several months. He relied sometimes, too much, on Edson's Stewart Clan Magazine. Stewart admitted he had used, with permisiion, some of Edson's material. Wm. C. Stewart had letters from an a great uncle to his father, written years earlier, and he was searching for a Monroe Stewart's roots, which he thought might have some connection to Tippah Co., MS. So far as I know, he never made the connection. Cheers, Cordelia I would add that if you have Pendleton connections, the book originally sold for $5 when I ordered it directly from the National Genealogical Society of Washington, D. C. Whether it is still available, I do not know, but I suspect that it is. Probably worth ten times what FTM discs are worth. (S'cuse the editorial comment. csholem)
