Hello Everyone, 1880 Census for Washington District, Lincoln County, West Virginia. Nelson Elijah MCCLURE (b. February 6, 1829) and his wife Nancy Ann HALL CLARK MCCLURE (b. abt 1834), and their children. Listed as a servant is John H. KEYS, w, m, 34, (born abt. 1846) Servant, born in Virginia. I'm wondering is there a connection between this John H. KEYS and Eliza KEYS (b. abt. 1821 in Virginia, d. December 7, 1891 in Kanawha County, West Virginia) who married Alexander C. CLARK (b.December 20, 1810 in Indian Mills, Monroe County, Virginia, d. abt. 1880 ). This Clark line is connected to the Clark families of George Rogers CLARK of "Lewis & Clark Expedition". Eliza and Alexander Clark are buried at Spring Hill Cemetery, Charleston, Kanawha County, West Virginia RALPH was born Abt. 1800, and died 1828. He married ISABELLA Abt. 1820. Also, I'm wondering if maybe Ralph & Isabella Clark are the parent of Owen Bat/eman Clark? Most of the information below came from A History of Monroe County, West Virginia, by Oren F. Morton Children of RALPH CLARK and ISABELLA are: i. OWEN CLARK ii. ELIZABETH CLARK , m. NEEL . iii. JULIA CLARK iv. JOHN CLARK v. JOSEPH CLARK . vi. WILLIAM H. CLARK . vii. CLARA CLARK , m. JOHN PATTON . viii. MARGARET CLARK , m. JOHN JOHNSON . ix. THOMAS CLARK . x. ABNER CLARK . Owen seems to be a much used given name in these Clark families; Owen Alexander, Owen Batman, Owen F., Owen Foster. Thanks for any help, Pat
