Ebook Richard Clarke of Rowley, Massachusetts, and His Descendants in the Line of Timothy Clark of Rockingham, Vt., 1638-1904

This volume is the outcome of a search for the ancestry of Timo thy Clark, an early settler of Rockingham, Vermont, undertaken by the writer in the spring of 1902, at the request of Col. Albert Clarke, of Boston, a great-grandson. The search continued for nearly two years, and resulted in establishing the descent of Timothy Clark from Richard Clarke, an original settler of Rowley, Mass, through Richard's great-grandson, Ebenezer Clark, of Mansfield, Conn. The line of descent is absolutely proved by the land records and vital statistics of Mansfield and Stafford, Conn., and Rowley, Mass, and by the Probate records of Essex County, Mass, and is further corroborated by interesting collateral proofs.
