  • Notes 
    • Could this be a daughter of John C. and Caroline CLARK? The 1910 census shows John C. CLARK with a grand daughter, Bessie May Black, age 11, in his household. This would fit with the 1895 marriage date of Minnie Belle CLARK and Archa BLACK.

      [The census data for the John C. Clark family in 1900 Howell County, MO, is difficult to interpret, due to a poor digital image, taken from a poor original. As an aid to interpretation, I downloaded the census page from another source on rootsweb: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/mo/howell/howecen.htm. The digital image on rootsweb is better than the ancestry image, and with photoshop enhancement, the data was available for transcription.]
