About William H. Clark
The cholera outbreak in Walnut and Harrison townships was contained within an area of a radius of about four miles. The first victim to die in this epidemic, William Clark, died only four hours after becoming ill. Over the next two weeks his wife, (Elizabeth 'Betsy" Nida 1802-1849), daughter, her wife’s parents (Peter & Elizabeth Shuck) and another daughter’s father-in law would also die. Eight members of the Martt family would die and the corpses would lie unattended in the house for days because nobody was available to bury them. During the course of the epidemic, which lasted about two weeks, a total of thirty-seven people would die.
