Jonathan B. Clark, MD, was born in Randolph County, NC, June 26, 1836, the 
second son of William and Louisa (Worth) Clark.  He assisted his father during 
his vacations, attending school in the New Garden, SC, boarding school. He 
afterward taught school one term and was overseer of his father's cotton factory 
about two years before commencing the study of medicine.  In 1856 he began the 
study of medicine with Dr. Clark, remaining with him a year.  He then read with 
Dr. Woollen and subsequently, in the winter of 1859-60, attended lectures at 
Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, Pa.  In the spring of 1860 he attended 
the University in New York, and the following winter graduated from the 
University of Pennsylvania.  He located in Economy, Ind., and has gradually 
built up a good practice.  He has been a hard student and has met with good 
success.  In the spring of 1883 he took a special course of lectures at Bellevue 
Hospital Medical College, New York.  Dr. Clark owns a fine farm of 170 acres 
which he carries on in connection with his practice.  He is industrious and 
energetic, and has by his own efforts accumulated a fine property.  His 
grandfather, Dr. David Worth, was a prominent physician of North Carolina, and 
attained a wide reputation in an early day.  Dr. Clark was married Dec. 25, 
1867, to Matilda J., daughter of Isaac and Luziema (Williams) Conley.  They have 
four children - Eva C., Edmund D., Maud L. and Myrtle E.  Dr. and Mrs. Clark are 
members of the Society of Friends.
