Hi Michael, Micheal's double greats are also in my lineage. Michael Ryan and Jane L. Wells, as well as William Lindsay Morrow and Sarah Glenn, are also my double greats. I have some information that one of my mother's cousins sent to her saying that a "Michael" had done lots of research on the Clark family for him. I'm wondering if that is you! If so - did you ever figure out where Michael Ryan Clark was buried? Most of my search has been online. Do you think I would fare better by traveling? I've tried to get in contact with Michael but have not had luck. Thanks for any help you can give me. I really am enjoying reading your information and blogs! Janet Arnold
