Information on John G. Clark

Some sources claim that John G. Clark married a Lydia Donnelly, supposedly as his second wife, but since Frances (McClintock) out-lived him, that seems unlikely unless John and Frances' marriage ended in divorce. If John G Clark DID marry Lydia Donnelly, it would have more likely been before his marriage to Frances McClintock. Additional sources are needed to prove if John G. Clark was married twice.
