I would very much like to have a reunion with Electa (CLARK) GOTT. She
married James GOTT 'n had several children, among them, Harriet Delilah
GOTT, my gr grandma. I have James' genealogy back to Charles GOTT who
married Thankful Gift in 1598, but I haven't been able to even establish the
parentage of Electa.
Has anyone already had a reunion with Electa? If so, would you please
invite me?
Thanks,

Joe,
I believe that Salathiel's mother may be a woman named Dordamy or Diadama.
A Dordamy CLARK was living in the next household enumerated after Salathiel's
in the 1820 census. She may be the same woman in all of the records below.
I believe that Salathiel lived in Washington Co., NY around the time of the
War of 1812. If Diadama/Dordamy is not his mother I'm sure that she is a
relative of some sort. I am pursuing information that suggests that her surname
may have been LYMAN. If so, then her husband's name may have been James
CLARK. This comes from two sources. The first is a record in the IGI on the
LDS website. There is no source listed nor is the submitter of the information
given. The other source is from "A History of Hartford", by Isabella
Brayman, 1929, pg. 161. It says that a Mrs. Diadama LYMAN CLARK WHITLOCK* became
the second wife of Alexander ARNOLD. She died in Avoca, Steuben Co., NY and is
buried in Highland Cemetery in that Town. I can confirm that a woman named
Diadama ARNOLD sold a piece of property with her husband, Alexander ARNOLD,
in Washington Co., NY and that a Diadama ARNOLD was living with an Alexander
ARNOLD (a younger man probably the elder man's son) in Avoca, Steuben Co., NY
in 1850. However, the land sale and the 1810 census coincide with each other
and the 1810 and 1820 census clearly say that Diadama/Dordamy CLARK are the
heads of their households. I fear that there may have been two women of
that name in Washington Co., NY about the same time, or the source for Alexander
ARNOLD's marriage got Diadama's surname/surnames wrong.
1820 Groton, Tompkins Co., NY, US Census, pg. 35

Hi Sue... Thanks for the updates...
Do you have any guesses as to the parents of Salathiel Clark?
It's an unusual name so there probably aren't too many of them... Does
that name show up in 1800 to 1850 census, anyplace?
Thanks
