Notes for John CLARK

Littell page 76 has: "John Clark came from Long Island, and settled in this place. He was said to be no kin to Daniel, Elias, or Isaac Clark, nor they to each other. He was an elder in the church here. He lived where Matthias Osborn now lives,
and, by his first wife, had children: . . .[listing same]." While this is clearly identified as Elder John Clark, Littell's statement that he was no kin to Daniel, Elias or Isaac Clark appears to be incorrect. The statement that John came from Long
Island also would appear to be incorrect, though, if he is in fact the son of Samuel and grandson of Richard, then both his father and grandfather had come from Long Island about 1678.
