Notes for James CLARK

C.C.Gardner, page 152: James 5 Clark, son of John 4 and Huma, was probably born at Springfield, and was bapt. at Westfield, Sept. 11, 1763. He lived at Springfield and was called James Clark Jr., evidently to distinguish him from his grandfather. He
was a Revolutionary War Soldier.
