General Notes: Husband - James Clark


He grew to manhood on the farm in Canton township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, (later known as the S. K. Weirich farm), where he received a liberal education for those early days. Later he kept a store in Hopewell township, also a mill, and was engaged in various other business enterprises; he had an interest in the wagon trains that crossed the mountains for merchandise, and assisted in the building of the National pike. After marriage he and his wife settled on a farm in Hopewell township, Washington County, Pennsylvania.


General Notes: Wife - Jane Henderson


After the death of her husband she remained on the old home farm with her children, until they had all left for homes of their own, and she then lived with one or other of them, the last year of her life being passed with her daughter, Mary (Mrs. Wylie), at whose home she died at the ripe old age of eighty-six years.
