According to Clark of Elizabethtown, NJ, the line is:
1. Richard and Elizabeth Clark who brought their family from Long Island to Elizabethtown, NJ in 1678
2. Richard and Hannah Norris Clark
3. Richard and Hannah ? Clark
4. James and Anne Wood Clark
5. James and Esther ? Clark
Have local documentation from this point forward.
6. Samuel Clark,b. 1768, m. 1791 Westfield Pres. Church to Mary Darby, b. 1768?
Samuel and Mary apparently left NJ sometime after the first three or four children were born( based on census listing of birth places). Mary died abt 1806. Samuel and children were in Upper Township of what is now Lawrence Co. OH by 1810. Samuel was
the original proprietor of a parcel of land where Ohio 650 has an interchange with US 52, at Hanging Rock, Hamilton Twp., Lawrence Co. OH
Samuel sold his Ohio property and moved to Missouri in the mid 1840's, dying there in 1854, and buried in the Gash Cem in N Kansas City, MO.

Samuel Clark was born in NJ in 1768, married in 1791, and by the1810 at
the latest, was in Upper Twp. It was still part of Scioto Co then. His wife
was Mary Darby, but she died before the family reached Ohio. The children were
Samuel Jr. b. 1792, Cornelius b. 1793, Joel b. 1795, Hannah b. 1798, James b.
1800, Amos b. 1802, Rebecca b. 1803, and Sarah b. 1805.
Samuel Jr. married Phoebe Sayre from Meigs Co, and moved westward.
Joel married Margaret before 1820. Her family name is not known at this
time. She died about 1832. They had several children, who I have not been
able to identify so far.
Hannah married William Carpenter. Their family and Samuel Clark moved to
Missouri in the mid 1840's. Hannah, William and Samuel are buried in the
Gash Cemetery in N Kansas City, MO, with one large marker for the three.
James married Martha Lambert. They moved away and I don't know anything
about their family.
Amos married Sally Stumbough. They had four or five children before he
died in 1848. I have some additional info, including his estate settlement.
Rebecca is reported to have married a David Robertson. They are reported
to have been in St. Louis in mid to late 1800's.
Sarah married a William McCoy, and I have the names of 5 children born
between 1828 and 1842.
My direct line continues with Cornelius, who married Elizabeth Lambert, a
daughter of Jonathan and Margaret McFarlin Lambert. They moved into Aid Twp.
about 1825, and raised a large family. The youngest son was Levi. Levi's
oldest son and my grandfather was Delbert.
Would welcome correspondance with any descendant of this family,
especially those line where little is now known. I have documented my line and am a
member of First Families of Lawrence Co., with my Clark and Lambert ancestors
proved. Will be happy to share with any other Clark researcher.
