3-Caroline Chilton (Mrs. John Clark)
Caroline Chilton, sister to Thomas Boggs and Truman Chilton, was married to John Clark in Knox or Ray County, Tennessee early in the nineteenth century. Three sons were born to them: John, James and William. The family moved to Clerks Creek, Wayne County, Missouri in an early day. John Clark, oldest son of John Clark, Sr., whipped Frank Hickey, Allen Hickey (Frank's son), James Nassy and Hust Montgomery in a fist fight. So they played cards to see who should kill him. The task fell to Hust Montgomery. He shot and killed John Clark and then William Clark killed Frank Hickey. William and James Clark, John's brothers, followed the other three into the Indian Territory. They were gone one year, came back and said they followed them as far as they could.
James Clark married a Miss Wadkins, raised a family of eleven children, eight girls and three boys: Martha Caroline, Sis, Betty, Almeda, Charity, Sinbeck, Sally, Malisa Ann, James, David and John. James was married to a Miss Wadkins, lost her and married her sister and the second wife raised the eleven children. Martha Caroline was married to Zacari T. Cavender, to which union were born four children: Louis, James, Lora and Mary. Louis married to a Miss Williams and two or three years later died. James Cavender was married to Miss June Williams, five children were born to them. Lora Cavender was married to Robert Galbrath in June 1906 and to this union were born four boys: Clay, Buell and Burel (twins) and Wilbur. Note: Wilbur Galbraith was the father of Keith Galbraith, found in the history of Shadrach Chilton, son of Thomas Boggs. Mary Cavender was married to Gus Williams in Carter County, Mo. in 1907 or 1908, to which union were born two children: Gardener and Margaret. Sally Clark was married to a Mr. Rutledge in Reynolds County, Mo. Sinbeck Clark was married to William Clark, son of David Clark (Cousin to Sinbeck) in Reynolds County, Mo. Several children were born to them, but I don't know their names. Sis married Henry Bowling; Almeda married Munroe Luck; Betty married George Malloy; Charity married John Dale; Lysa Ann married John Driner; Sally married George Rutledge; James married Jane Carter, and David married a Miss Durbon. -The Chiltons...page 871.
