Almeron W. Clarke was born in Brookfield, N. Y., May 14, 1826, and died in Milton Junction, Wis., June 3, 1905. He was the son of Elnathan and Maria Spencer Clarke. His father's family consisted of four sons and seven daughters. Rev. Joshua, Rev. Ira D. and Dr. Silas S. Clark were his brothers, and preceded him to the better land. Also three sisters, Mrs. Cornelia A. Randolph, Mrs. Clarissa J. Brightman and Mrs. N. A. Brightman. He experienced religion in Watson, N. Y. when fifteen years of age. From this time on he was an earnest Christian. He loved his Bible from a small boy, consequently he became a Bible student.
Although he was never ordained to the ministry, for several years he preached the gospel of Christ, which was so dear to him.
In 1853 he moved from Watson, N. Y. to Berlin, Wis. June 2, 1855, he was married to Maria David, of Berlin, Wis., and five children blessed their union. Maria Louisa, Ira D., Silas E., Mary L., and William J. Clark. The eldest, Maria Louisa died in infancy. Silas E. at Albion, Wis., at the age of thirteen, in 1875. Ira, the eldest son, died in Fort Atkinson, Wis. in 1895. Only Mary and William are living. In 1865 the family moved from Berlin to Albion, Wis. where they resided on a farm until twelve years ago when they moved to Milton Junction where they lived at the time of his death. He first joined the Seventh Day Baptist Church in Watson, N. Y., then removed his standing to the different churches where he resided being a member of the Milton Junction church at the time of his death.
He had been an invalid for about thirty-five years. He suffered very much from rheumatism but through all these years of suffering he was never heard to murmur or complain. His faith never faltered in the wisdom and love of God who doeth all thing well. He welcomed the approach of death which was to put an end to all his earthly sorrows and suffering and bring him into the presence of the dear blessed Jesus who had never failed him. He leaves a wife, two children, nine grandchildren, four sisters and numerous friends to mourn their loss.
