General Notes: Husband - Dr. William A. Clark, Jr.


He was about four years old when his parents moved to Philadelphia, and later to Butler, Pennsylvania, where he attended the public schools. His father's business required family removals and he later was a student in the private school of Professor Clark, of Sharpsburg, near Pittsburgh. From there he came to New Wilmington, Lawrence County, and for four years was under the instruction of Mrs. Elizabeth Edgar, a well known educator there, preparing to enter college. In the meanwhile, his father had installed an electric plant at New Wilmington and this became Dr. Clark's property and was under his management until he sold it, prior to entering the Western Reserve College, at Cleveland. In preparation for the medical studies he intended to pursue there, he had taken a course at Westminster College. After one year at the Ohio institution, Dr. Clark attended old Jefferson Medical College, at Philadelphia, for a year and then took a special course in diseases of the stomach, at the Chicago University. For two years following his graduation, Dr. Clark practiced his profession at Volant, Pennsylvania, and then moved to New Wilmington.
He and his wife belonged to the Neshannock Presbyterian Church of New Wilmington. Fraternally, he was a Mason and an Odd Fellow.
