| 1113 | F Corlies Morgan home, Chestnut Hill: Historically known as “The Gardens,” the estate at 8635 Montgomery Ave. was built in the early 1850s by developer Clayton T. Platt, who was responsible for many of the homes along Montgomery, Birch and Evergreen avenues, developing the area as the “country seat of Chestnut Hill.” Some believe that The Gardens was the first home built on Montgomery Avenue. The home features a three-story grand staircase, original millwork, herringbone floors, nine working fireplaces and three stone terraces. Flanking the house is a once-elaborate sunken garden designed at the turn of the century by Oglesby Paul, who was the designated landscape gardener for Fairmount Park. The gardens were later enhanced by Robert Wheelwright, who went on to establish the Department of Landscape Architecture at the University of Pennsylvania. The early families who lived at 8635 Montgomery – the Trotters and the Welshes – used the home as a summer escape from Spruce Street, where both families resided downtown during the year. A renovation was completed in 1915 by then-owner F. Corlies Morgan. Today, the house is nearly unchanged, aside from the kitchen, which was moved upstairs from the basement. In the mid-1920’s, large parcels of the estate were given to children in the family, one of whom built what is now known as the McNeil estate, in back of the property. The other child built the home at the corner of Montgomery and Evergreen avenues. In the mid-1950’s, the remaining estate was divided into two properties, with the carriage house developed into a sizable home of its own with terraced gardens. In 2001, Sam Blake performed an extensive restoration of the property. | Morgan, Fisher Corlies (I1368)

| 1131 | From Baker Family Tree: ************************************************* THE SEVENTH GENERATION: James Clark (1794-1878) James Clark, the second oldest child of John T. Clark and Cynthia Campbell, was born in Bradford County in 1794. He married Sarah Simmons in 1818 and together they had at least nine children born between the years 1818 and 1835. All of their children were born in Burlington, Pennsylvania. Sometime in late 1837, the family moved westward ultimately arriving in Fairmount Township, Grant County, Indiana in February of 1838. In a history of Fairmount it is written: “The Clark family came in two wagons, one drawn by horses and the other by an ox team.” What motivated James Clark to move his family 600 miles from Burlington, Pennsylvania to Grant County, Indiana can only be assumed. Perhaps it was to seek a better life for himself and his children; perhaps it was just in his genes to migrate. James’ 4th great grandfather, Joseph, had journeyed from England to America in 1637, his 2nd great grandfather, Theophilus, had moved from Massachusetts to Connecticut in 1733, His grandfather, Benjamin, had relocated his family from Connecticut to Pennsylvania in 1770, and now he, James Clark, had crossed 600 miles of wilderness to start over again in Indiana. The Clark family continued to display an incredible pioneer spirit. ******************************************************* | Clark, John Theophilus (I3744)

| 1133 | From Bradsby, 1891 B. M. CLARK, undertaker, Rome, was born July 22,1845, on the farm owned by his brother, and is a son of Harry and Ellen (Brown) Clark, natives of this county. His boyhood was passed on his father’s farm, and in attending school in Rome and Orwell; he afterward learned the trade of mason. His first farm was the old homestead which contained one hundred and twenty acres, which he sold to his brother, and in 1876 he built his present residence – an elegant house containing all modern conveniences. He was united in marriage October 20, 1868, with Eliza Vought, daughter of John and Esther (Horton) Vought (the former born at Standing Stone and the latter in Sheshequin), whose family consisted of six children of which Mrs. Clark is the second. Mr. and Mrs. Clark have an adopted child, May, now in her twelfth year; the family worships at the Baptist Church. Mr. Clark is an unswerving Republican in politics, and has held the office of township commissioner for two years, besides other local offices. The Clark family are well-known and highly respected by a large circle of friends. From Bradford Reporter, October 18, 1883 Captain [Benjamin] Clark was twice married. In the Westmoreland town records are the following entries: Births of the children of Benjamin Clark and Nabbie his wife, John Theophilus, born July 8, 1770; Poly, born February 24, 1772; Nabby, born March 3, 1774; Sally and Milly (twins) born March 5, 1777, Nabbie, wife of Benjamin Clark departed this life March 12, 1777, in the twenty-fourth year of her age. John T. married and settled in Burlington where he died. His history will be found interesting. Mary married a Blanchard, and Abagail married a Culver; both left the State. From Bradford Reporter, July 17, 1884: John F. [sic] Clark came to Burlington in 1798, and located where Dr. Tracy now resides. when a child, Mr. Clark lived with his parents in the Wyoming valley, and was there at the time of the "massacre." His father being in the service, he was placed in the fort for protection and made his escape with a lady in a canoe down the river. For more than a year Mr. Clark did not know the whereabouts of his son. At the close of the war Mr. Clark, whose name was Benjamin, moved to the "Sheshequin Flats," in what is now known as Ultster and located on the place of Benjamin Ross, where he lived until the time of his death. John T. was a young man when he came to Burlington, and shared in a commendable manner the hardships of a new country. He remained a citizen of Burlington until the close of his life. After a short residence at Burlington Centre, he moved to the place now occupied by Z. Morgan, where he spent the remainder of his days. Mr. Clark had a family of twelve children, three of whom are yet living. These are Mrs. E. Gustin [Cynthia], Mrs. E. Nichols [Ursala], and Mrs. Z. Lane. of the Clark name only B.M. Clark, a grandson, is yet living in the township. A John Clark listed in 1810 census of Burlington Township, Luzerne County (later Bradford), at age between 26 and 44, with 1 male under 10, 1 male 10 to 15, 2 males 16 to 15, 4 females under 10, and 1 female between 26 and 44. From Baker Family Tree, Chapter 17, The Clarke Family http://bakerfamilytree.blogspot.com/2008/02/chapter-17-clarke-family_27.html Retrieved Jan. 15, 2011 THE SIXTH GENERATION: John Theophilus Clark (1770-1840) John Theophilus Clark was only eight years old when the Indians and Tories attacked the Wyoming community in July of 1778 in what historians are now referring to as the “Wyoming Massacre.” Fortunately, John was with the other civilian inhabitants who fled into the forest when the militia surrendered the fort where they were living. John was in his late teens when his father and step mother moved to Bradford County further up the Susquehanna River in the late 1780s. Here he married Cynthia Campbell, of Scottish descent, in 1790 and together they parented twelve children between the years 1792 and 1824. He remained in this area as a prominent farmer for the remainder of his life. John died in 1840. Cynthia died in 1864. Cynthia Campbell’s grandfather, David Campbell, immigrated to America from Scotland in 1720. The family first settled near Boston. David’s son, James Campbell (our daughter-in-law’s 6th great grandfather), was a 2nd Lieutenant in the Massachusetts’ militia during the American Revolution. His name is included in the DAR Patriot listing which is a benefit to any of his female descendants who might be interested in joining the Daughters of the American Revolution. In 1790, he moved his family including Cynthia to Burlington, Pennsylvania. They are considered to be one of the earliest pioneer families in Burlington. | Clark, John Theophilus (I3744)

| 1138 | From Find A Grave site: John H. Scott was born on the old Scott farm in Jefferson Township, November 23, 1861. He was reared and educated in that vicinity. At a young age he did all he could to assist his widowed mother, and lived at home until his marriage to Lucinda Leach, in 1890. She was born in Fairmount Township, May 7, 1868, a daughter of William J. and Ellen J. (Havens) Leach, of the prominent family of that name in southern Grant County. "On section twenty-six of Jefferson township is located one of the substantial country homes of Grant county. It is not a pretentious homestead, its owner, John H. Scott is a quiet, efficient worker, and manager of his resources, and his farm indicates his individual character. It comprises seventy-five acres of as good land as can be found in the vicinity, and one of the evidences of his thrift and prosperity is a comfortable white house, standing in the midst of a grove of trees, erected by him in 1898. A good barn and all other facilities for up-to-date farming are on the place. Mr. Scott is one of the very excellent farmers, and he and his wife, who has worked alongside of him throughout their married career, have succeeded in building up a modest little fortune and in rearing a family of good children. More than that could hardly be said in praise of anyone, and it is an accomplishment to be proud of." The children of John Scott and Lucinda Leach Scott are: Effie, Ira Pearl, Sarah Ellen, William Harvey, Ancil Everett and Arlie W. John H. and Lucinda Scott were members of the Methodist Church, and his political affiliation was with the Republican party. References: 1.

| 1144 | From Francis D. Donovan, EARLY MEDWAY SETTLERS & LAND RECORDS, 1996, www.medwaylib.org: In 1727, Theophilus Clark deeded 110 acres on both sides of the New and Old Grant line. His holdings ended at what is now Peach Street in Medway Village. The Clark lands, owned by Timothy and Theophilus east of the Old Grant line were holdings acquired by their grandfather Joseph Clark at the "Bent of the river" in part, and included 77 acres of the Wheelock lot. (page 5) By 1702, he was settled on the Wheelock Lot No. 1 in both the Old and New Grants. His dwelling stood at the northeast corner of the present intersection of Village and School Streets in Medway, and his lands extended westerly as far as the present Peach Street, and to the east as far as the prest Walker Street. He owned 110 acres in all. His wife Rachel died in 1717, and he married second, in 1718, Elizabeth Cutler, widow of Nathaniel Cutler of Reading, who brought three sons with her to Medway. Theophilus built and ran the "Bent Sawmill" a little south of his dwelling across the Mendon road. He served as Selectman in 1714 and 1722, and was on the town committees involved in building the meeting house in the Old Grant on Bare Hill and securing a minister. The first "warning out of town" took place in 1733 at Theophilus Clark's house, when Constable Edward Clark warned a Mary Burrit, possibly a servant, to depart from Medway. Theophilus was called "Lieutenent" in the town records. About 1733, he removed to Ashford, Connecticut, where he died in 1737. The year he died, he deeded his 110 acres in Medway to Jacob Parker and Thomas Corbin who later sold off the land in parcels to Medway residents. A part of this land, including the dwelling and mill, were bought by his nephew and namesake Theophilus Clark in 1737. (page 6) | Clark, Theophilus I (I28)
