William Clark (born ca 1814 died in/after 1891)

I am looking for the place/dates of death of William Clark of Pease Township, Belmont County, OH and his wife Ruth Clark. He was born about 1814 (probably in Wheeling, WV) and he and Ruth were living in Wheeling in 1850 & 1860 and in Pease Township, Belmont County in 1870 & 1880. Ruth was born about 1818 in Virginia. I don't find them after 1880. He was a river boat pilot.

One thing I don't have is when/where William and Ruth died and where they are buried. I did find a reference to William in the January 16, 1891 obituary of his sister, Margaret Clark Hall (Margaret lived in Wheeling). The obituary lists him as "Captain William Clark of Bridgeport."

Could anyone help with that information?

Thanks

Paul
