Biography

Clarissa Weeks was born 1765 in Deep River, Guilford, North Carolina, United States. ^[1] Her parents were William Weeks, Sr. 1729-1785 and Susan Heaton 1735-1794.

She married Seth Mendenhall 1771-1834 on 05/06/1797 in New Garden, Guilford Co., NC. These are some of their children (need to verify):

1. Nancy Mendenhall 1802-
2. Asael Mendenhall 1805-
3. Jabez Mendenhall 1805-1844
4. Olive Mendenhall 1814-1895
5. Sarah Mendenhall 1811-1817

Clarissa passed away in Mar 1860 in North Carolina, United States. ^[1]

Clarissa was mentioned in her father's will. No record was found in Hinshaw that stated Clarissa was the daughter of William Weeks, however, it seems most logical to place her with William since there were no other Weeks families living in the area but that of William and family.
