On February 20, 1862, William Wallace Leach married Margaret F. Clark, who was born November 29, 1841, in Union Township, this county. Her parents were Silas Garrett and Mary Ann (Mount) Clark. Silas Clark was born in Kentucky, near Lexington, the son of William and Francis (Blades) Clark, and came to this county early in its history and here married Mary Ann Mount, the daughter of Alfred and Margaret Mount, the same family which gave a governor to the state of Indiana. Mr. and Mrs. Clark reared a large family of eleven children, only four of whom are now living. The sons are: William, of Missouri; James Thomas, of Bloomington, Indiana, and Henry Washington, of Iowa. Two other brothers, George and John, died in the West. Of the five daughters, Sarah Elizabeth married Thomas Stewart; Jane became the wife of John Russell; Rhoda Ann, the wife of Linden Wade, and Ella died when a young woman.
