Research note · 30 Sep 2026
AUDITED 30 Sep 2026 - PARENTS UNKNOWN; ONE PAIR RULED OUT. Online trees and hint-merges offer Christopher Clark Sr. (1737-1800) and Millicent Terrell as her parents. Per the 30 Sep 2026 agent report (agent-report-1101-mourning-clark-mansfield-2026-09-30.md) those are the parents of a different woman, Mourning Clark KEY (b. 12 Aug 1764, m. William Bibb Key 23 Dec 1782, d. 22 Jan 1840, buried Key Family Cemetery, Elbert Co., Ga.), whose birth, marriage, husband and death all differ from this Mourning, wife of [1200] Robert Mansfield. DO NOT ATTACH THEM (Owen, 30 Sep 2026). 'Clark' is taken as her maiden name; no record read names her father. DEATH: this tree gives 18 Mar 1831; a Mansfield cemetery web page is reported as 18 Mar 1836. Neither is cited; both are kept in view until a stone or Bible record settles it. Next document: V. E. H. McNaught, James Clark, Mansfield, Christopher Clark, and Allied Families (1934).
