Biography

North Carolina Flag
Emily (Clark) Aldridge was born in North Carolina.

Emily Jane "Jincy" Clark was born December 15, 1827. She died December 29, 1909 in Watauga County, North Carolina. She was the daughter of Jeremiah Clark and Mary McCall. [1]

Jincy Clark is buried at Foscoe Community Cemetery, Watauga County, North Carolina. Records indicate she was divorced from Harrison, granted July 23, 1896.

Jincy Clark and her husband Harrison Calloway Aldridge are mentioned in the book Jeremiah and Alexander Clark of North Carolina published in 1997. The reference follows with the author's (Robert Bradley Clark) permission.

"Jane “Gincy” Clark was born about 1830 to Jeremiah Clark and Mary Ann McCall. She married Harrison Calloway Aldridge, son of James Aldridge and Betsy Calloway. The Aldridge and Calloway families appear in the chapter on Related Families. Their children were Martha, Elizabeth, James, Tempy, Fannie, Mary, Sam, Harrison, Sarah and Manarvey Aldridge.
Jane and Harrison Aldridge lived in North Carolina in old Burke County. This area was later to become Watauga County. Daughter Martha married Samuel Carson Byrd, son of George Washington “Broke Leg” Byrd and Betsy Jane Phillips, and they lived near Valle Crucis next to her cousin Harrison Clark, son of James Wilburn Clark. Son James married Sarah Gragg. Daughter Fannie married Henry T. Shook. Their son Sam married Malissa Buchanan. Their son Harrison married Ellen Buchanan." [2]

Note: At times Harrison and Jincy Aldridge went by the Calloway name, the family name of Harrison's mother. For example, the 1870 US Census lists them by the Calloway last name.
