Author's STATEMENT- This website was created as both a tribute to my parents Sarah E. (lee) and Thomas E. Clark, Sr. and as a venue for my brothers, sisters and cousins to display pictures and news of their individual families on a page of their own. With an immediate family of over 100 persons and many many cousins and one uncle, I thought it would be fun for us to have a place to see, not only the history of the families presented (via old pictures and stories), but also current and on-going pictures and/or events. I REALLY enjoyed lining up the siblings and seeing the resemblances come forth. That said, I hope you will enjoy being a part of this. Please come at me with criticisms, comments, corrections (preferably documented), additions and esp. more pictures and documents.

I will be glad to link up to other of our extended family websites that might be out there, or assist in adding a page of your own to this one. I am working on becoming better at restoration of old pictures, and will make these pictures better as we go forward.

BIBLIOGRAPHY - Although not intended as a genealogical site per se, I am presenting three generations of ancestors only. Below I am listing links that can take you to some genealogical sites of this family. This is a record of documents used in this site:  Birth, Marriage, Death Ccertificates, plus Cemetery, Census and other records that I have or had access to. Additions to these will be added as they become available.
