Daniel Clark and his wife, who was a Miss Shelton, were natives of
Scotland.  They emigrated to America and settled first in Lancaster
County, Virginia, from whence they removed to Culpepper County, where
they both died about 1799.  They had six children: William, John, 
George, Robert, Elizabeth and Polly.  William married Elizabeth Hud-
nall, and settled in Mason County, VA., where his wife died December
14, 1816, and he died at the same place on July 4, 1826.  Their child-
ren were: John H., Frances S., Jemima J., Elizabeth, Nancy, William M.
and Polly A.  William M. married Elizabeth H. McMullin, and settled in
Audrain County in 1839.  Mr. Clark is a good neighbor and citizen,
hospitable, industrious and persevering.  He has a remarkable memory
in regard to dates, and can remember the date of nearly every event
that has occurred during his life.
