These bible records are copied from the Clark family bible which belonged to Sarah Jane Evans Clark and in the possession of Jane McCall, jane@jag.mn.csoft.com of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Some of the records are nearly illegible as the bible has been heavily worn through the years. These records are reproduced in this document as they appear in the bible including abbreviations and spellings.
