Clark Burial Site---Town of Potsdam---PO025

 

This burial site is located on the Austin Ridge Road. Approximately 1 mile north (towards Norfolk) on State Route 56 out of Norwood, turn left on the Yaleville Road (County Road 48A), and cross the bridge and go to the intersection (River Road). Turn left and then the next right is the Austin Ridge Road. Approximately 0.9 miles on the Austin Ridge Road, the two graves are located on the left, and just across from the intersection of the Italian Road, on the right. (Only one stone is standing, and it is close to the road, but keep a sharp eye out, or you will miss it). Daniel Clark's stone is standing, but Hannah's stone is on the ground and broken.
