At a Court held at Southwark for the County of Surry, May 15, 1717 the within mentioned Will of John Clark, dec'd, was presented in Court by Mary Clark, Exec. Thereof who made oath thereto and being proved by the oath of Thos. Lane and William Holt, witnesses thereto the same ordered be recorded and is recorded by; Jno. Allen, CL. CT.

The Tithe lists for 1700/01/02 list him between Robert BARHAM and Wm. Holt. In his excellent article on the "Newsom Family", Va. Magazine of History Vol. XLVII, and succeeding issues, Dr. B.C. Holtzclaw, the author, states that "John Clark's wife, Mary, was probably identical with Mary Flake, etc." This is an error in that Mary Flake married another John Clark. This latter John Clark leased land from Dorothy Meddows, Widow, in 1663.
