Notes


George Clarke

The christening of "George Clarke" is listed in FamilySearch (FHL Film # 991352), which states that he was christened on 22 March 1611 in Kimpton, Herefordshire, England, and that his father was "George Clarke".

"George Clarke" the "Farmer" died after 18 June 1690--as he is described as becoming the "Senior" George Clarke upon the death of Deacon" George Clark who died June 18, 1690, and before or during June 1691--when his ["Farmer" George Clarke's] Will of 25 April 1690 was "exhibited in court" and probated in June 1691.

Research Note: In August 2016, family researchers for the Samuel Clark Family Organization (SCFO) determined that the George Clarke who was christened on 22 March 1611 in Kimpton, Hertfordshire, was "probably" the same George Clarke of Milford Connecticut who mentioned in his Will of 25 April 1690 that he had three brothers: "John Clark", "Edward Clarke"and Daniel Clarke", and a "small" parcel of "land in old England lyeing in Mush Mundon in Hertfordshire".  Interestingly, family researchers could only find one parish in England in which George Clarke and his three brothers: John, Edward and Daniel, were being christened in the same location during the early 1600's--and that parish was Kimpton, Hertfordshire. This George Clark was known in American historical records by several titles, including: "George Clark, Farmer", "George Clark, Junior", George Clark, Husbandman", and "George Clark, Yeoman".

"George Clark" is listed in the book "The Daily Union History of Atlantic City and County, New Jersey", by John F. Hall, 1900, under the section entitled the "Clark Family" (pages 379-384), as follows: "Thomas Clark, of Milford, Connecticut, probably brother of George Clark Jr., of Milford, and of John Clark, of Saybrook, who came from ---, Hertfordshire, England;...."

"George Clark" is listed in the book "History of the Colony of New Haven to Its Absorption Into Connecticut", by Edward Elias Atwater, 1902, p.645, which states the following: "George Clark (16-- 1690), the "Farmer," was a brother of Hon. Daniel Clark (16-- 16--) of Windsor, Conn., one of the patentees under the [1662] charter from [King] Charles II.  They with their brother John Clark (16-- 16--) of Guilford, came from England, where they had property which is mentioned in the wills of these three brothers; possibly Samuel Clark of New Haven was another brother.  His only son, John, died without leaving any children; a daughter, Ruth (16-- 17--), married Thomas Fitch (164- 168-) of Norwalk;...."

"George Clark" is mentioned in the book "Noyes-Gilman Ancestry", 1907, as follows:  "George Clark mentions in his will [of 1690] his three brothers, John, Edward, and Daniel. Of these, Edward had apparently remained in England, and had left a legacy of one hundred pounds to George's children some years before. John is supposed to be Mr. John Clark, of Hartford, who was one of the most influential settlers in the colony. He was a soldier in one of the battles with the Pequots in 1637, one of the patentees of the Royal Charter in 1662, and deputy almost continuously from 1641 to 1665. The brother Daniel may probably have been the Hon. Daniel Clark, who as a boy came to Windsor, Conn., about 1639....".

"George Clark" is listed in FindAGrave, Memorial # 14903587, which states that he was born about "1613" in "Watton-at-Stone", Hertfordshire, England; that he died on "10 June 1690" in "Milford", Connecticut; that he was "Buried in the oldest section of the Milford Cemetery" in Milford (New Haven Co.), Connecticut, and that "No grave marker remains" for him.
Note: Current research shows that the birth place and death date of George Clark who is listed in FindAGrave, Memorial # 14903587, is not correct.

"George Clark" a "Farmer", and his family are described in the book "Deacon George Clark(e) of Milford, Connecticut, and some of his descendants", by George Clarke Bryant and Donald Lines Jacobus, 1949, pages 3-6 and 14-16.  This book is available online at: https://dcms.lds.org/delivery/DeliveryManagerServlet?dps_pid=IE937769.  Also, the Will of "George Clark", the "Farmer", is dated 25 April 1690, and is listed in this book on pages 7-9; and can also be found on Rootsweb at:
http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=wrandall&id=I3989, which reads as follows:

Relationship Note:  The question of "Were 'Deacon' George [Clark] and 'Farmer' George [Clark] Related? was discussed in the book "Deacon George Clark(e) of Milford, Connecticut, and some of his descendants", by George Clarke Bryant and Donald Lines Jacobus, 1949, page 6.  This book is available online at:  https://dcms.lds.org/delivery/DeliveryManagerServlet?dps_pid=IE937769. This book presents the following information about this possibility:
     "There are curious juxtapositions of Clark names on some of the early records.  Perhaps they are merely coincidences and do not point to any relationships:
    "Will of Timothy Baldwin of Milford - dated Jan. 31, 1664. (Vol. 1, Manwaring, p.177) 'Deacon Clarke' and 'George Clark Jr.' two of the overseers. Witnesses - George Clarke, Sen, and George Clarke Jr.
    "Will of Joseph Northrup of Milford - dated Sept. 1669. (Vol. 1, New Haven Probate Records, p.15) 'George Clarke Senior & George Clark junior' two of the overseers.
    "Will of George Clarke ('Sr' and 'farmer') dated Apr. 25, 1690 (Vol.2, New Haven Probate Records, pp.73-74) The witnesses were Thomas Clark and George Clark.  (Thomas and George were sons of 'Deacon' George. Their brother Samuel was already married to a daughter of 'Farmer' George)."


Sarah

"Sarah" the wife of "George Clark" a "Farmer", is described in the book "Deacon George Clark(e) of Milford, Connecticut, and some of his descendants", by George Clarke Bryant and Donald Lines Jacobus, 1949, pages 14-16.  This book is available online at: https://dcms.lds.org/delivery/DeliveryManagerServlet?dps_pid=IE937769.  According to this book, "George Clark" a "Farmer...married Sarah ---, who died at Milford [Connecticut], July 19, 1689. Sarah was admitted to the First Church, Milford [Connecticut], Nov. 22, 1640 as wife of 'George Clerck Junior,' and opposite the entry is added her date of death."

Over the past few decades several surnames have been connected with "Sarah" the wife of George Clarke Jr.  However, extensive research by the Samuel Clark Family Organization (SCFO) during 2015 and 2018 into the possible surname of "Sarah" did not prove successful in determining which--if any--of the suggested surnames/relationships were correct.  Therefore, the SCFO has decided to leave the given name of "Sarah" independent of any surname.

It is probable that "Sarah" was born in England or elsewhere in western Europe, as the Plymouth Colony was the first colonial settlement in New England and was founded in 1620.
