General Notes: Husband - William R. Clark


He resided on a farm about two and one-half miles west of Mt. Jackson, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania. It was a farm of eighty-five acres situated about one mile west of Westfield Church, in North Beaver Township.

He was reared in Little Beaver Township and in his boyhood obtained the usual common school education available to country-bred youths. Along with this was the practical training that developed him into a careful and intelligent farmer. After his marriage he lived for four and one-half years at Newburg, in Little Beaver Township, moving to another farm, March 31, 1886. This property was formerly owned by N. D. White, who, at death, left it needing a large amount of improving, which Mr. Clark then engaged in. In 1904 he remodeled the old residence and built an addition, and in 1901 tore down the old barn and erected a new substantial one. Mr. Clark created a very attractive place and a nice home, while the land, under his careful cultivation, produced fine crops and gave plenty of rich pasture for his dairy cows.
He and his wife belonged to the Bethel United Presbyterian Church, in which he served thirteen years as an elder, and was a deacon in the Westfield Church, which he and family later attended.
