Erastus & Jerusha, CT>NY?IN>IA
Ada Maranda Clark or Clarke, b. 21 Apr 1820, NY; d. 17 Nov 190-1, Arlington, VanBuren, MI; m. 21 Apr 1841, LaGrange Co., IN.She appears in the 1870 census in Arlington.
I believe her to be the daughter of Erastus & Jerusha Clark & Jerusha.
An Erastus Clark is in the 1840 & 1850 censuses in Clay Twp., LaGrange Co., IN.Here's the 1850 entry:
Erastus, 50, b. CT
Jerusha, 58, VT
Elisabeth, 24, NY
Sylvia, 19, NY
Chester, 14, MI
There may have been a daughter Emily, b. abt 1822, NY.
Somewhere (lost my source!) I got a reference to an Erastus Clark m. Jerusha Larrabee.A Jerusha, w/o Erastus Clark, d. 1860, Clear Spring,LaGrange, IN, bur. Osborn Cem.The family continued west & Erastus reappears with living with an adult child (Chester, I think) in Rockyford, Pottawatomie, IA.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
