The Irish-American Clark family of Crawfordsville is well recorded after
a large collection of family photographs was donated to the library a few
years ago. This circa-1880 photograph shows Irish immigrants to Crawfordsville,
John Clark (third from left), Richard Clark (next to right), and Thomas Clark
(last on right). The sons of John Clark stand to the left of the photograph:
Thomas Clark (far left), and Jess Clark. John
Clark married Mary Slattery, another Irish immigrant, in 1857 in
Crawfordsville. Thanks to all those generous people who donate photographs and documents to preserve the history of Montgomery County!Monday, March 16, 2015

This is my family! Thomas Clark was my great grand father. His daughter, Mary Clark, was the mother of Jack "Doc" Pickerill, my dad.
