my stone wall., am still seeking for any info at all on what happened to James Clark and Elizabeth Ladd Clark after they moved their family of two daughters and one son, my grandfather Thomas C Clark to Burlington Iowa supposedly in 1834. I had assumed that they moved there because Christopher Ladd and ELizabeth Brock Ladd had moved to Burlington a few years prior. James and Elizabeth were married in 1826 in Morgan co. Indiana, had two girls under age five according to census of 1830 Morgan co In, and Thomas C Clark on 14 March 1831 Morgan co In. then they moved to Coles co Illinois in 1832, and after the death of James father Thomas Clarke in Morgan co In. they moved, supposedly in 1834, to Burlington Iowa. From there I have not been able to find any info at all on them. I know that as a young man my grandfather Thomas C Clark was in Nebraska and married Mary Laura Martin. am hoping someone might have info on this family, any tiny scrap most appreciated.
