About 15 years ago at a yard sale I bought a box of old pictures (in Southern California). This
year when I became interested in tracing my family history, I decided it would be great to reunite
these pictures with their family. The tree, as far as I have been able to discern it goes as follows:
Dr. Charles S Clarke b. 1815 in Ohio m Sarah L (possible maiden name: Wadsworth) b. 1816 in
Vermont
Their Children: Emma b 1848 in Iowa; Charles A b 1849 in Iowa; George D b 1853? in Iowa;
Mary b 1856 in Iowa; Helen May b abt 1882 in Iowa. (There may be other children between
Mary and Helen).
Helen married a Robert Vote and moved to California where they had at least one child, also
Robert Vote.
Some of this information is from the 1850 Iowa Census (Henry County, Mt Pleasant); and the
1860 Iowa Census (Jefferson County, Fairfield). The rest is gleaned from the backs of pictures,
the obit for Sarah Wadsworthe Clarke and various notes and materials found in the box of
pictures, some of which were taken in Germany. If anyone is related please email me at
