Published sources disagree on the parentage of Hannah Clark. She is said to be the daughter of Samuel Clark and Hannah Wilcox, or the daughter of William Clark and Rebecca Wells.[1]
She probably was not the daughter of Samuel Clark & Hannah (Wilcox). There is no Hannah listed as one of their 4 children [2]. Samuel Clark died before 1716, so he could not have been Hannah's father if she was born in the 1725-30 timeframe.
