Rachel was born to John and Magdalen Bullard Partridge on 12 Jul 1669 at Medfield, Suffolk (now Norfolk), Massachusetts[1]
Theophilus Clark married Rachel Partridge in Medfield before 1693, probably in 1691. The marriage does not seem to be recorded in any town's records, but Torrey records it without question.[2]
NOTE: Rachel Partridge did not marry Joseph Daniells. Many family trees claim a first brief marriage between Joseph Daniells and this Rachel Partridge. This claim is included in histories by Ephraim Orcutt Jameson and William Cutter. But there is no support for it in the vital records, it is called doubtful in Torrey's exhaustive study of early New England marriages, and it is impossible because Rachel, far from dying before 1693 when Joseph actually married Bethia, instead produced 12 children with her actual husband Theophilus Clark between 1692 and 1712, before dying in Medway in December 1717. For those reasons, that purported marriage has been removed from this profile.
Theophilus and Rachel had, in Medfield:[3] [4]
Rachel Partridge Clark died 1 Dec 1717, at Medway, Suffolk, Massachusetts[5]
