	Series: 10 J (Volume 10) Scope and Content Note: Primarily correspondence and interviews by Draper with numerous Clark family relatives and descendants. The papers are bound in two segments: pages 1-185 in Part 1; pages 186-385 in Part 2. Topics range widely over Clark's ancestry, military career, finances, years of retirement, health, appearance, and portraits. Family traditions about Clark and his romantic interest in Teresa de Leyba are found in a letter (1849) by Lucy Semple Green (Part 1) and an interview (1868) with Jonathan Clark's son, William (b. 1795) in Part 2. Among other papers in Part 1 are a few letters addressed to Mann Butler and extensive manuscript genealogies of the Rogers family by John G. Rogers, Thomas Rogers, and Joseph Underwood. In Part 2 are found notes taken by Leonard Bliss Jr., during an interview with William Croghan and a printed genealogy of the Anderson family of Virginia by R.A. Brock.
