    Vital Record Succ St.Landry Feb 1829 ( Melinda Parmer Mary Steven, widow of John Clark, sponsor for baptism of Catherine Welsh (Jacob Walch of Pennsylvania and Susan Robert) 9 Jan1814

    from Melinda's webpage (copyrighted):
    The marriage record for John and Mary is recorded at the St. Joseph Church of Baton Rouge, and reads : "In the village of Natchez in the month of March in the year of 1796, Don Gregorio White, assistant priest [Presbytero] in this Parish, ... joined in marriage Juan Clark, legitimate son of Florence and of Susana, with Maria Henrique [sic], legitimate daughter of Enrique and of Maria, ..." (translated from Spanish). John's second wife is Mary Stephens, and I theorize that the priest mistook Mary's father's given name Henry as the surname.
    John Clark is the godfather of Esther Cantey.
    St. Landry Par., LA, Court Records
    Estate Settlement for John Clark
    "Here it is observed that the deceased had been twice married, that his first wife died leaving two children [William and Abijah; William's children are also listed]...--- that by his second wife who survived him and still lives, he left seven children.."
    From Southwest Louisiana Records, the first wife is Tabitha Clark or Caanty and the second wife is Mary Stevens. However, Mary Stevens presumably died in 1813. There are birth or baptism records in St. Landry Parish for each of the children listed in the succession.

    John married Mary Tabitha Erwin Cantey on 23 Nov 1784 in Natchez District, Mississippi. Mary (daughter of William (Guillermo) Quinter (Cantey?) and Mrs. Esther (Catherine or Catalina Russ?) Quinter) was born about 1766 in Mississippi; South Carolina; died before 1797 in St. Landry Parish, Louisiana. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
