Dear Shelley,
I'd like to be of help and I'd dearly love to have a need for the photo, but no names of this sort appear among any of my Clark/Clarke line. Good luck tracking down a good home for it.

My Clark's (Clarke's) are traced back to Dedham MA and Medway MA, altho a
large branch moved to South Thomaston, Rockland ME area. Medway is close
to RI (everything is close in NE!) and a possible link just might be there.
I would love to see the photograph to look for a family likeness. Jean

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Professor B. F. CLARK or CLARKE which
was taken at the Jones Studio in Providence, Rhode Island. The photograph
appears to have been taken in the 1870's with the Professor likely in his
40's at the time it was taken. In addition to his name, someone has
written
"Mathematics" on the front of the photograph.
The photograph was recovered with others belonging to the Class of 1878
from
Brown University including both students and staff. Based on research I
was
able to locate information regarding Benjamin Franklin CLARKE, a Professor
of Mathematics who was teaching at Brown during that time, so I'm assuming
that this is a photograph of him.
Information gathered is as follows:
Benjamin Franklin CLARKE was b. 14 Jul 1831 in Newport, ME and married
Mary
Elizabeth REYNOLDS (b. 9 Aug 1833). Professor CLARKE died 29 Dec 1909 in
Providence, RI.

I am hoping to locate someone from this CLARK or CLARKE Family so that the
photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of
this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Professor B. F. CLARK or CLARKE which
was taken at the Jones Studio in Providence, Rhode Island. The photograph
appears to have been taken in the 1870's with the Professor likely in his
40's at the time it was taken. In addition to his name, someone has written
"Mathematics" on the front of the photograph.
The photograph was recovered with others belonging to the Class of 1878 from
Brown University including both students and staff. Based on research I was
