CLARK. The Clark family is of early record in Northumberland county. One Jonathan Clark lived above Sunbury, in the vicinity of Klines- grove, where he owned property and followed farm- ing. He is buried in that section. His children were : William, John. Samuel, Wesley, Peggy (married Robert Campbell) and Mrs. Kuhrs. Of these, William settled at Roaring Creek ; he had a son William. John was a farmer in his early life, but moved to Sunbury, where he lived and died; he also had a son William and daughters Mary Ann, Jane, Elizabeth and Ellen.

Wesley Clark, born above Sunbury, lived later where his son Frank is now located, in Lower Augusta township. He was a farmer, and his home place consisted of thirty-five acres, besides which he had a tract of twenty-seven acres. He died where his son Frank now lives, and is buried at the Presbyterian Church near which he lived. His wife was Mercy Yoxtheimer, who came from the same vicinity as her husband, and their chil- dren were Benjamin, Malinda (died in infancy ), Frank, Charles and Perry (of Juniata county, Pa.).

a number of improvements on the property which have added materially to its value. He married Mary Adaline Renn, daughter of John Renn, and they have had a large family : Ira married Mary Conrad and lives in Rockefeller township: John married Mary Snyder and is living in Lower Au- gusta township; Dean S. married Lena Kimball and they live in Sunbury; Herbert married Esther Wolf and they live in Rockefeller township: Wil- liam is married to Carrie Duttinger and living in New Columbia, Pa. ; Walter married Jennie Wilk- ison and they reside in Rockefeller township; Frank married Maud Bobb and makes his home in Milton, Pa. ; George, Ida, Hazel and Annie are unmarried.

. Ulrich Clark, the founder of one branch of the family now flourishing in Northumberland coun- ty, was a native of New Jersey, and came hither in young manhood, making the journey by wagon. He came by way of Reading and up the well known Tulpehocken pike through Harrisburg. and met with a band of Indians, whom he saw kill a small child, so that his first impressions of the new region were not reassuring. He settled in Upper Augusta township with his- then small family, and devoted his time to clearing his land and farming.

Jackson (or John, as he was also known) Clark, son of Ulrich, was a boy of twelve when he came with his father to Northumberland county, and he was reared to farmning, which he in turn took up on his own account. He became the owner of seven hundred aeres in Upper Augusta township, where he lived to the end of his days. dying there. He is buried in the Mount Pleasant Church ceme- tery in that township. Mr. Clark was a well known man of his day. He married Miss Thomas, who was a member of a Southern family, and they had a family of seven children : William K. is mentioned below ; Mary married Jacob Haupt; Louisa mar- ried Ira Shipe; Jane was twice married, her see- ond husband being George Beard; Rebecca mar- ried Moses Shipe (brother of fra) ; Elizabeth mar- ried Henry Pover: Ellen married Silas Conrad (brother of Mrs. Harriet Eckman, of Sunbury). (At Mount Pleasant Church are buried John Clark, who died April 28, 1874. aged seventy-one years, seven months, nineteen days; and his wife Margaret, who died Nov. 25, 1876, aged seventy- one years, three months, twenty-four days. It seems reasonable to suppose that these are the John Clark and wife referred to in this para- graph. )

Frank Clark is a farmer in Lower Augusta town- William K. Clark was born Jan. 25, 1830, in Upper Augusta township, and died May 1, 1895, in Sunbury. He owned a fine farm in Upper Angusta township, where he followed farming for several years, and for a number of years he was also engaged in the mercantile business, even- tually removing to Sunbury, where he ended his sluip, where he was born May 12, 1858, and edu- cated in the local schools. When twenty-one he be- gan farming on his own account, and after one year spent in the employ of others he became a tenant, about 1895 acquiring possession of the homestead. He built the present house and barn upon this traet, putting up the house in 1894, and has made days. He was a Republican in politics. and in

Campbell, and had three children, Fan- nie, Mary and Earle ; Wilson Howard is mentioned below; John Sterling, born March 31. 1861, is a farmer in Upper Augusta township; Elmer E. is mentioned below : Maggie, deceased. was the wife of John Cassett (she left no children) : Robert is a resident of Plymouth, Pa. ; William C. married ; Hunter J. married.

WILSON HOWARD CLARK, who is now engaged in general farming in Upper Augusta township, was born in that township July 4, 1858, and there : attended public school in his boyhood. For some years he was employed by the Sunbury Gas Com- pany, and he followed the same line of work for a number of years, in Ohio, Indiana (at Goshen), New Orleans (La.) and Plymouth. Pa., where he lived for a number of years. . He remained there until 1905, in which year he returned to his native township, where he has a farm of 137 acres. He is engaged in general agricultural work, in which he has been very successful, and is one of the most respected citizens of his section. He is a Repub- lican in politics, and he and his family are Meth- odists in religious matters.

On June 26, 1880, Mr. Clark married Hannah Shonk, daughter of Caleb Shonk, who lived at Plymouth, Pa. ; the Shonk family came into this section from New Jersey. . Five children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Clark: Howard Wilson, Jr .; Caleb S. ; William K .; Helen M., who is a student at Ursinus College, at Collegeville, Pa. ; and Wal- ter F.

ELMER E. CLARK has been in business in Sun- bury since 1907, in which year he bought out the well known and old established planing mill of the late Ira T. Clement, which he now conducts under the name of the Sunbury Lumber Manufac- turing Company, doing planing mill work of all kinds. The plant is one of the important factors in the industrial prosperity of the borough, and Mr. Clark has, by his ability and enterprise, shown himself worthy to be classed among Sunbury's sub- stantial business men. He was born April 21, 1862, in . Point township, Northumberland county, and received his education in the public schools of Upper Augusta township. He worked for his father on the farm until he went to Danville, Pa., where he was employed in a rolling inill for two years, after which he went to Plymouth, Luzerne Co., Pa., where he also remained two years, en- gaged in the mines and as a clerk. Following this he took a course at Coleman's business college, in Newark, N. J., from which institution he was graduated. He was married there and then went

and otherwise maintaining important business as- sociations in his section. Meantime he became a member of the firm of Clark Brothers, composed of himself and his brothers W. C. and H. J. Clark, who established their extensive plant at Plymouth, Pa., which through their experience, energy and ability has attained the distinction of being the largest of its kind in central Pennsylvania. The business at Plymouth was under the direction of the other two brothers, Elmer E. Clark looking after their interests in West Virginia during his residence in that State. The Clark Brothers estab- lished the Sunbury Lumber Manufacturing Com- pany on the property forming a part of the estate of the late Ira T. Clement, on Race street, ad- joining the lines of the Pennsylvania railroad, at Sunbury. The lumber business of that borough is one of its inost valuable industrial assets, giving it high standing as a commercial and shipping center, and the Sunbury Lumber Manufacturing Company soon took its place among the most pros- perous institutions of its kind. Mr. W. C. Clark took the management of the Sunbury plant, which was equipped with all modern machinery and de- vices necessary to the production of high-grade woodwork, a sixty horse power engine supplying the motive force. The lumber yard carries the largest stock of seasoned timber of any similar concern in Sunbury, and a switch connecting it with the railroad makes the facilities for trans- portation particularly good. The firm has handled some very large contracts.

After a residence of nineteen years in Virginia Mr. Clark returned to his native county, in 1907, giving his time to the conduct of the old estab- lished planing mill purchased from the Ira T. Cle- ment estate. He owns this mill, but it is now idle. The business, located at Third and Arch streets, is at one of the oldest stands in this district, and Mr. Clark has enjoyed a large trade in all kinds of mill work, giving regular employment to be- tween thirty-five and forty mechanics. He has made a specialty of hard wood interior finish, turning out rough and dressed lumber, the busi- ness being very comprehensive and meeting every demand of the local trade. He expanded the busi- ness steadily by progressive methods and honorable dealing, and has shown himself an exemplary mem- ber of a family which has long and excellent stand- ing in this locality.

On Nov. 23, 1888, Mr. Clark married Isabella Forrester, daughter of George and Ellen (Camp- bell) Forrester and granddaughter of James For- rester. Mr. and Mrs. Clark have had two chil- dren, Chester D. (who graduated from Pennsyl- vania State College in 1911) and Flossie E. They reside at No. 1119 East Market street, in

One William Clark bought on Feb. 12, 1786, a warrant of land containing 298 acres, from George Pearson, land agent. Part of this tract is now owned by Jacob Keefer, at Keefer's station. in Upper Augusta township. On Feb. 23, 1789, Wil- liam Clark bought another tract of land in Upper Augusta township, from George Withington. His son, George Clark, lived in Derry township.

John Clark (e), of West Buffalo township, then in Northumberland county, made his will Dec. 9. 1807, and it was probated March 9, 1809. In it he mentions Jane, who married David Watson, and William and Jane, children of his son Joseph Clarke.

John Clark (who it is said had a brother Jon- athan in Northumberland county) came from New Jersey and settled in Upper Augusta township, Northumberland county. He is buried at Snyder- town. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church. He was a farmer, and owned the place now the property of Daniel Kembel. He was twice married, but had no children by his second wife, whose maiden name was Guss. His family was as follows : Elizabeth, who married Henry Cooner ; Rebecca, who married Samuel Wallize : Jonathan ; Mary, who married Solomon Sterner: Lukens; Samuel, who died in Rush township; John, who lived in Upper Augusta township; and William.

William Clark, son of John, above, was born in Upper Augusta township and lived on Little Roaring creek, in Rush township, where he owned two farins, having about three hundred acres of land. He was a member and trustee of the Rush Presbyterian Church, and is buried at that chureh. He was quite aetive in local affairs, serving as overseer of the poor and in other offices. To his marriage with Jane Moore were born seven chil- dren, namely : Lukens lived in Iowa : Asenatlı mar- ried John Bird; Hamilton lived in Catawissa, Pa. : Mary married Clinton Kase: Margaret married John Wallize; William lived in Rush township : Sarah Ellen married Philip M. Forrester and is now (1911) past seventy years of age.

Henry Clark, from whom another branch of this family is descended, was a farmer in Upper Ma- hantango township, Schuylkill Co., Pa., owning a farm in his earlier life, and later was a butcher and laborer.

He has been a useful eitizen of his loeal- ity, and has served a number of years as school director and supervisor. In polities he is a Dellio- crat, and his religions connection is with Salem Lutheran and Reformed Church, of which he has been deacon and trustee and is at present serving as elder.
