Introduction

My aunt, Charlyne Dodge, compiled a bunch Clark family stories back in the 1960's.  That little blue book has since been a treasured possession that has been handed down in the family.  It can be found online here.

Recently, while searching for something else, I came across some information that led me down the Google rabbit hole and on to much more "new" information on the Clark family.  Digitization of documents by the State of Texas General Land Office, newspapers, research journals, etc. make information much easier to find, although it still requires some sleuthing.  I have uncovered enough new information that I thought it would be worthwhile to document it for those of us still around and for future generations.  I think I have found some answers to questions that have been around for awhile.  I am sure there is a lot more to be discovered.

For the purposes of this update I will assume those viewing will have seen or have access to Aunt Charlyne's original book.
