The names that are in bold are from a different source than the ones not in bold..
Some of the bold names were on another cemetery reading, also.

There are many discrepancies in these readings.  The best bet would be to go to the cemetery and look at the original stones.

**The following query was found in the Ancestor Hunt Genealogy Quarterly 1999
CLARK - My ggg Grandfather, William Fowler CLARK, was b. 3 May 1787, in Bethany, CT, and moved to Conneaut, OH in May, 1819, where he d. 9 July, 1876, age 89.  His son, Azariah, my gg Grandfather, relocated to Jackson County, IA, in 1850.
This family's history is well-recorded, but I am interested in knowing if any Clark's from this line still live in Conneaut.  Thank you.  Barbara MAYBERRY, 705 Dunham Ct., Maquoketa, IA 52060.  Email:  bmayberry@mail.ms.maquoketa.k12.ia.us
