Ann, wife of F.H. Ethington, is found in the 1860 Henry Co Ky census page 359B dw 850.  In the 1900 census, same county, Defoe dw 113 fam 115, she is listed as unable to read or write, but speaking english.  She says that she has been the mother to 7 children, 6 of whom were living in 1900.  Note that the family of Wm.

Mary Elizabeth ETHINGTON

Birth state and year from 1860 Henry Co Ky census page 359 B dw 850.
In the
1900 census, Mary's middle initial is shown as "A.".  She is noted as unmarried, and able to read and write.  Per JWE page 40, Elizabeth married late in life to Sonny Mitchell.  There were no children.

 Kentucky Cemetery records (see John B. Clark file) show Mary E. Mitchell buried between Joseph N. Ethington, and Sammie and Agusta H. Ethington.  Will assume that this is Mary Elizabeth, who married Sonny Mitchell. Dates on that stone are 1869 - 1934.


Thomas C. CLARK

Letter from Betty Ann Bowles to HDE 23 Aug 1992:

 "I doubt that Thomas C. Clark is related to Aaron Clark.  There are scads of Clarks in the area..."

Birthplace of "Ireland" is from 1880 census for son, William Riley Clark. Franklin County KY ED 76.

Possible dup submission for B, E, in NOV95.

 SP:  pre 1970

Note from John B. Clark to HDE March 1997:
(Refers to the Henry Co 1860 census page 369 where Eliza Clark is living with the family of John and Amanda Wood) "Could Eliza be Ann Eliza nee Ethington who married Thomas C. Clark in 1834?

Could Thomas C. Clark have died before 1860? Could George J. Clark be Ann Eliza and Thomas C. Clark's son?  Could William Riley Clark be Ann Eliza and Thomas C. Clark's son?  I have William Riley Clark born Arkanss 16 Aug 1849."

"Could Amanda Wood be Amanda nee Clark, a daughter of Ann Eliza and Thomas C. Clark?"


William Riley CLARK

Riley Clark was a first cousin to his wife, Nancy Jane (Annie) Ethington. -JWE.

Memories of Ralph Price Ethington about "Uncle Riley" Clark:
 "Uncle Riley Clark had a lot of pride in being able to work just as hard as any other man.  However, as he grew older, he would soon lag behind the younger men while hoeing cotton.  Rather than stay behind, he would exclaim:  "Jimeny Jimeny, if I can't keep up I'll put my hoe on my shoulder and walk up!".  And that's precisely what he did!"

Anna M. Sis ALDRIDGE

RILEY CLARK AND MISS ALDREDGE HAD SEVERAL CHILDREN PER JWE PAGE 41.
First name of "Sis" from Mary Ann Clark, daughter of Chester Clark.

In the 1900 census Anna states that she has given birth to 3 children, all of whom are living.  They would be Walter, Leonard, and Raimy. Daughter named "Ressie" (from Chester Clark) will be combined with daughter "Raimy" since there are only three children from wife Anna.

A headstone found by John B. Clark (see his letter dated 2 Jan 1995 to HDE) shows birth year of 1863, and death 1938.


Henry BAKER

HENRIETTA ETHINGTON IS THE SECOND WIFE OF HENRY BAKER. - JWE PAGE 41

CENSUS:
 HENRY CO KY 1870

 IT IS ASSUMED THAT HENRY BAKER WAS BORN IN HENRY KY.  NO PROOF.

 Henry Baker's first family was incorrectly sealed to him and his second wife Henrietta Ethington.  This work was done on 28 Oct 1989 at JRIVE. Information now shows that this was his older family, wife's name not known at this date. The older children will be re-sealed to Henry and Mrs. Baker, and the younger children will be sealed to Henry and Henrietta.  Sealing date of 28 Oct 1989 for first family is invalid and will be removed from each child's record.

                                 -HDE
                                  23 Dec 1994

 A will for one Henry Baker who died in 1835 has been found in the Henry County will books (book 6 page 66, film # 828,248).  He names his son, John Henry Baker.  It appears that this John Henry Baker could be the same man as Henry Baker, husband of Henrietta Ethington, but there is no direct connection.
Henry Baker, husband of Henrietta Ethington is not known to have used the initial "J.", and he is not referred to as "John".  Need further information. Will file the will in the Henrietta Ethington file.


Mrs. BAKER

The name of the first Mrs. Baker is not known.  She is identified in the JWE
notes (page 41), where JWE says:  "Henrietta Ethington married Henry Baker,
being his second wife.
