Letter from George Moody to
Asel Clark, March 19, 1849

The Clark-Warner Family Papers consist of the correspondence of two generations of a family residing in western Massachusetts (principally South Hadley). Most of the correspondence was within the family, but there are also a few letters from friends. The major components are the courtship letters of Asel Clark and Clarissa Warner, l834-35; other letters received by Clarissa (Warner) Clark at this time and in later years; and correspondence among their five children, l862-77. Among the major subjects are courtship, opportunities for resettlement, and communication between separated family members. The overall arrangement is by generation and then by sender.

Asel and Clarissa Warner Clark (d. 1876) and their five children resided in South Hadley, Massachusetts circa 1830s to 1860s. No other biographical information is available.
