According to
her Kentucky death certificate #11172, Fannie Clark was born in April 1835 and
died April 13, 1916. She was listed as single and her parents were unknown.
The 1900
Livingston County shows Fannie Clark, as a cook residing in the household of her sister-in-law, Emily Clark, a hotel proprietor. Fannie is listed as
born in Alabama, as were her parents. By 1910, Fannie age 75, was a lodger in the home of Byrnes
Clark, a 44-year-old widower born in Kentucky. On that census, Fannie's birth
place was given as Kentucky and both parents were shown as born in Kentucky.
It is
unknown when Fannie Clark came to Livingston County, but her brother, James M.
Clark, was in Smithland by 4 February 1855, when he married Emily Lucas. He gave his birth place as Lauderdale County, Alabama. He appears on the 1870 and
1880 Livingston County census records, but Fannie does not.
