Notes |
- C.C.Gardner, page 21: John Clark 2, son of Richard and Elizabeth Clark, was born at Southampton, about 1665. He came to Elizabeth Town and was married before 1687 to Mary ___, who joined him in deed to Benjamin Griffith June 25, 1687. He was one of the Elizabethtown Associates in 1699, and his name appears about the same time on the several petitions to the King, complaining of the treatment accorded the settlers by the Proprietors.
May 20, 1686 he was patented 120 acres of land at Rahway, at an annual rental of 1/2 d. per acre. In 1700 John, Samuel and Thomas Clarke were members of a party including about sixty of the "Rabbell of Elizabethtowne" who rescued Samuel Burwell of Newark from the hands of the constable in 1700. These brothers, however were in good company, for the party included representatives of nearly all of the most prominent families of E.T. John Clark married 2. Martha _____ said to have been a Frazee.
