    Notes:

    http://www.progressivetel.com/~jdlowery/johnemily.html
    History of Laurens Co. GA claims he was of Scotch-Irish descent, was born in Ireland and immigrated to Burke Co. Georgia and later Laurens Co. GA.

    Among the pioneers of Laurens County Georgia was John Clark (1768-1827) of Scotch Irish Decent, who came from Ireland to Burke County Georgia where he married Amelia Sikes (Sykes) 1785-1844.

    In early manhood he and his family moved to Laurens County and purchased three thousand acres of land along the Oconee River. On this land was a steam boat landing, Baughnaughclaughbaugh Bluff.

    The bluff is also referred to as Bonnie Bluff.

    John Clark came to Laurens County about 1800 and settled on what is now the Telfar Road in the Cedar Grove Community.

    The author of the book Burch, Harrell and Allied Families claims he was the son of John Clark, Sr. of Beech Island, SC who was b. 1748 and married Ann Tobler of Charleston, SC. (See p. 62).

    Others who have researched the family include Dr. James Lesesne Bush who compiled a Clark Family genealogy found among my mother-in-law's books at her death.

    The name John Clark appears in the 1805 and 1807 land lotteries in Burke Co., GA. As a result of the 1807 lottery, he received a land grant in Wilkinson Co, now Twiggs, where the family resided before moving to Laurens County as pioneers; they settled in the Cedar Grove community. They acquired 3,000 acres along the west bank of the Oconee River which included the boat landing at Baughnaughclaughbaugh Bluff. This boat landing served Laurens County well into the 1920s. John Clark died in Laurens County on his plantation and is buried in the Old Clark Baptist Church Cemetery were the family attended church.
