This photo almost definitely came from the possessions of my great-great-great uncle Will Clark (b. 29 Oct 1874 in Shelby County, TN d. unknown). I descend from his sister Clara Bertha or Bertha Clara Clark Haulcroft (3 Oct 1875- 31 Oct 1938). Will and his brothers John Edward Clark and James Cleveland Clark were all merchants/store owners at one time in this area as well as runners of this stable. I have no info on the dates of death for Will or his wife Nellie (my grandma is named for her), John, or James. I am assuming all died after 1941 as that is when the mother of Clara Bertha, Will, James, and John died and the dated family bible stops. Hoping someone out there connects or enjoys the photo just the same! Andrea Thompson @ 2002-2004 |
