General Notes: Husband - James Reed Clark


He was educated in Washington, Pennsylvania, and graduated from Washington College (later Washington & Jefferson) in 1861. Shortly after leaving college, he enlisted in the Union army, serving on the staff of General Meade in the War of the Rebellion. At the close of the war he returned to Washington and later removed to Pittsburgh, where he opened a drug store. In 1883 he removed to Mandan, North Dakota, where he established a drug and prescription business in which he continued until his death. He had always enjoyed excellent health until a very short time before his death, when he was taken ill but did not think it serious. He went to Cleveland, Ohio, for special medical treatment, but it did not have the desired effect and he succumbed to the disease.
He was president of the Citizen's Club in Mandan and was an Elder in the Presbyterian Church.
