Clark, Mrs. Eliza E.-Jerome A. Clark was born in Cooperstown, Otsego county, N.
Y., October 29, 1811. He learned the jeweler's trade in New York and came to Batavia in 1834, where he established
himself in the jewelry business, in which he continued to the time of his decease in 1885. Mr. Clark was for many
years one of the wardens of St. James's church in Batavia, and was an exemplary citizen. As indicating the sentiment
of his townsmen at his loss, on the day of his funeral all the business places in Batavia were closed. He was married
to Caroline Holden, who died in 1855, leaving two Sons: Hinman H. of St. Louis, and John H. of Chicago; for his
second wife he was married to Mary Field, whose death occurred in 1869; he then married Eliza Holden, who survives
him, with one son, Jerome De Lancy, of Batavia.
