Biography

William Clark was an innkeeper, proprietor in 1645 of “The Ship’s Tavern” in Salem, MA. He is frequently mentioned in the Town Records as a property owner, a man of means and an officer in the town’s military company. (The Gedney and Clark Families of Salem, 1880, 5-11, Sidney Perley: History of Salem, 192_,2:183).In the summer of 1647, Clark died rather suddenly, perhaps a victim of the peculiar epidemic that afflicted the colony in June of that year. The estate was inventoried at 586.02.02, excluding a 200-acre farm near Cedar pond (designated as “the Clarke Farm”), two dwelling houses, part ownership of two barkes and a shallop, 1500 lbs. of tobacco, cart of three hogsheads of sugar, 40 lbs.of ginger, as well as other foodstuff and extensive furnishings belonging to the tavern. (Perley,2:83-4: Essex Co. Qtly. Ct. Rec. 1:119). His widow, Katherine, was licensed to keep the tavern as long as she provided a “fit man yt is godlie to manage the business.

In his account of "The Prince Family" [TAG, supra, 14:83-36], G. Andrews Moriarty lists William Clarke's four daugters by the second marriage and mentions the existence of three older children living at the time of their father's death "but of whom there is no further trace in the records." The purpose of the present article is two fold: I) to justify by probability the following identifIcation of the three older children of Mr. William Clarke; and 2) to present some new interpretations of the data regarding the children by his second wife.

Old Notes

“My 9th Gr-Grandparents, William and Elizabeth Clarke sailed over to Salem, MA with their two children (John,11 and Elizabeth,9) around 1637. Elizabeth died shortly after arrival and William remarried the widow of John Gedney, Catherine. They had 4 more daughters. William was a successful innkeeper in Salem and died suddenly in the summer of 1647, leaving a substantial estate (see above).His son John may have died earlier because his wife was given special rights as a woman to manage his holdings. Elizabeth, his eldest daughter married Lt. William Furber. They are my 8th Gr-Grandparents”

100 THE CHILDREN OF MR. WILLIAM CLARKE OF SALEM, MASS. by Frances Davis McTeer, A. M., of Detroit, Michigan and Frederick C. Warner, F.S., of North Amherst, Mass. Mr. William Clarke was an innkeeper, proprietor in 1645 of "The Ship's Tavern" in Salem, Mass.; he is frequently mentioned in the Town Records, a property owner, a man of means, and an officer in the town's military company [Henry F. Waters, The Gedney and Clark Families of Salem, 1880, 5-11; Sidney Perley, History of Salem, 192_, 2:183j. In the summer of 1647 Clarke died rather suddenly, perhaps a victim of the peculiar epidemical sickness which afflicted the colony in June of that year [Winthrop's Journal, 2:326. On 12:3m: 1647 Clarke was paid £2 .14.06 from the Salem Town rate presumably to compensate his expense, with Capt. Hawthorne and Mr. Corwin, in curinge for Goody Lamberte and her "dyett" [Salem T. R. 1:151]. But on 6: 5m: 1647 Corp. William Hawthorne, Mr. Georg Corwin and the widow Katherine Clark, all of Salem, were appointed administrators of the estate of William Clark, late of Salem deceased [Essex Co. Prob .Rec.1:65-67]. The estate was inventoried at 586.02.O2, including a 200 acre farm near Cedar Pond desingnated hereafter as the Clarke Farm, two dwelling houses, part ownership of two barkes and a shallop, 1500 lbs ot tobacco, cart of three hogsheads of sugar, 40 lbs of ginger, as well as other foodstuffs arc extensive furnishings belonging to the tavern [Perley, 2:183-4; Essex Co. Qtly. Ct. Rec. 1:119]. Evidently these commercial assets were speedily re- leased to the widow, for on 9: 5m: 1647, the very date of the inventory, Mrs. Clark of Salem was licensed to keep the ordinary at Salem, she to provide a "fit man yt is godlie to manage the business [ibid. 1:123]. There is no record of the disposition of the Clarke real estate although there is every evidence, as we shall see later, that the fan, was given to the widow for the beneilt of her minor children. On 11 Nov. 1647 on Mrs. Katherine Clarke's petition, the General Court ordered the distribution of the part of her husband's estate "as doth remain in specie" she to have £150, the four yourger children £110 with £40 out for schooling, the rest to be paid to the four at age 21 or at marriage "ye eldest son to have £28 and the other three £14 each, ye eldest sonne by his former wife £20, ye other £10, she yt is married £5" [Mass. Bay Col. Rec. 2:203]. The Records and Files of the Quarterly Courts of Essex Co., Mass. [1:32] for a court held at Salem on 30:10m: 1647, after reciting the same distribution to the widow and for the younger children's education, concludes "The elder son to have a double pchon and his eldest son by his former wife to have £20, the other £10 and shee that was married in his lifetime £5. These records of inventory and distribution are the whole account of William Clarke's estate settlement. Ills children are never mentioned by name. There are no probate papers, no guardianship records, and no way of knowing what happened to the assets of the estate other than the Farm and the cash on hand. The terms of the distribution are somewhat unusual in that the double pchon mentioned in the Essex County record was allowed to the eldest son of the second wife . However, this distribution dealt only with certain cash assets; all the heirs were allotted definite specified sums, with the double share applying only to the £70 remaining after the education of the minor children; and none of the amounts named was anyway near even one share of the inventoried estate. Aside from these two records the children of the Salem innkeeper have received but scant genealogical attention and that with a rather negative conclusion. In his account of "The Prince Family" [TAG, supra, 14:83-36], G. Andrews Moriarty lists William Clarke's four daugters by the second marriage and mentions the existence of three older children living at the time of their father's death "but of whom there is no further trace in the records." The purpose of the present article is two fold: I) to justify by probability the following identifIcation of the three older children of Mr. William Clarke; and 2) to present some new interpretations of the data regarding the children by his second wife.

She had married her first husband James Prince on April 28, 1623 in Londonand he died by November 2, 1635. <ref name=NEHGR170 /> They emigrated to New England by 1637, accompanied by the three children of his first marriage William, Thomas and Sarah, and at least two of Katherine's children by her first marriage, Robert and Rebecca Prince. <ref name=NEHGR170 /> William Clarke's name first appears at Salem when he received a land grant on June 19, 1637. <ref name=NEHGR170 /> In 1645 William was an innkeeper and proprietor of "The Ship's Tavern"in Salem, Massachusetts. He was quite a wealthy man, a property owner and an officer in Salem's military company. He probably enjoyed a relatively superior social position as he is described several times as"Mr. Clarke." in the Salem Town records. <ref name=TAG39 />

Died Suddenly===William died suddenly in the summer of 1647, he could have been a victim of an "epidemical sickness" that had smitten Salem residents in June of that year. On May 6, 1647 three people were appointed administrators of the estate, they were: Corp. William Hawthorne, Mr. Georg Corwin, and his widow Katherine Clark, all of Salem. The Inventory totaledL586.02.02 - it was extensive and included:

  • a 200 acre farm near Cedar Pond - the Clarke Farm.
  • two dwelling houses
  • part ownership in two barkes and a shallop
  • 1500 lbs of tobacco
  • part of three hogsheds of sugar
  • 40 lbs of ginger and other food

There exists two records of distribution, but the names of his children are never mentioned. There were no probate papers and no guardianship records, so the names of his children are only probable. Katherine died at Salem, Massachusetts between August 31, 1667, the signing of a deed to John Gedney Jr., and March 15, 1677/8, when her name no longer appears on land conveyances. <ref name=NEHGR170 /> John Gedney Sr. left parts of his estate to Katherine's children including, Susanna (Clarke) Gedney who had married his son John Jr., Hannah (Clarke) Gedney, wife of his son Bartholomew, Rebecca (Prince) Putnam and to Katherine's grandchild Bethia Hutchinson daughter of Bethiah(Prince) Hutchinson, deceased and Joseph Hutchinson. <ref name=NEHGR170 />

There is no absolute positive records identifying these three as children of William Clark, but the authors of the TAG article (The Childrenof Mr. William Clarke of Salem) do have evidence of a sort: *Clarke's estate distribution indicates that he had two sons and a married daughter*In 1647 they were living in the neighborhood of Salem and were probably personally known to the magistrates and administrators of their father's estate.*They were allotted less than the younger children, so conclude they were adults and probably received some property as gifts during their father's lifetime.

  • They were property owners with large estate inventories.*No other Clarks of Massachusetts Bay Colony in the 17th century are found to be so qualified by interrelationship, by age, by locality, andby social standing.

(NEHGR says this marriage of Bethiah to Joseph Hutchinson is controversial since there was also a TAG article written by Moriarty in 1937 which concluded that Hutchinson's wife was daughter of a former wife of John Gedney whose name was Bethia Prince.)
