    Other Events and Attributes:

    • Residence: , Bedford, Virginia, USA

    Notes:

    Captain Christopher Clark was born 1681 in Virginia and died on 28 May 1754 in Louisa, Virginia.

    Married:

    Elizabeth
    Penelope (surname unknown) Clark (1684 - 1760)
    Capt Christopher did have a first wife named Elizabeth. They never had any surviving children. She must have died around 1708 since all mention of her disappears and Christopher Marries Penelope around 1708 or 1709. They then have their first son EDWARD, in 1710 ( off the top of my head ) followed by all sorts of children who lived.

    Disputed Origins
    Seen as son of Micajah Clark (1659 - 1706) and Sallie Ann Moorman Clark (1662 - 1710). However, an argument presenting Edward Clark is seen here: https://www.geni.com/discussions/196579?msg=1297453
