Hello,
I'd like to re-post my interest in learning anything at all about a married
couple:
James and Lavair (??) CLARK
(possible Lavine or Lavina)
who were living in Westport, MA (near Fall River or New Bedford)
in the 1830's
They had a daughter, Mary Anna CLARK, born there in 1837.
By the 1850's, Mary Anna seems to have been orphaned .. as she was living
there with a Miss or Mrs. Rhoda CLARK.
There might have been a relative, William CLARK, who was still alive around
1915.
Probably around 1855-1860 .. Mary Anna CLARK married John DEXTER who had
been born in 1837 in Killingly, CT. I do not know where they married.
I don't know anything ... about John and Mary Dexter's children . except
that they probably had a son and daughter .. probably born in the 1860's or
1870's.
In 1892, at Age 55, John and Mary Dexter adopted a baby girl. At the
adoption in Cambridge, MA, they changed the baby's name to .. Mary Anna
Clark DEXTER.
In 1899, Mrs. Mary Dexter died. On her Death Certificate, her parents were
listed as James and Lavair CLARK.
When Miss Mary Anna Clark DEXTER married in MA in 1911, she listed her
parents as William CLARK and Mrs. Mary DEXTER.
John and Mary DEXTER were living in Melrose, MA, at the time of the Adoption
in 1892.. and I believe they were there until 1899. I do not know when
they moved to Melrose, MA, or where they lived before that.
Thank you for any advice you might be able to offer. I am not able to
access Census Records .. I would be very grateful .. if someone could
offer Census information about:
James and Lavair Clark .. in the 1830's in Westport, MA
John and Mary Dexter .. in the 1880's/1890's in Melrose, MA
Have a great Holiday Weekend!
Betty (near Lowell, MA)
P.S. Almost forgot ... while looking in the LDS records this morning, I
came across two possible couples:
James CLARK and Lavine WENTWORTH married in 1823 in Springfield, MA.
(with possible ties to Berwick, ME)
James CLARK and Lydia Lavina ATWOOD married around 1819 in Berkshire County,
MA
