Hi Ben, Ken Dicken- Clem A Hart's parents were both born in Maine.  Clem was married to Margaret C Hart (Jonas) around 1907.  I don't know his date of death but he was living in Washington Sate in the 1920 census.  Thank you Ben, Ken

Thank you, Ben, so vey much. He was actually born in 1762, in Prussia.  He came over with the British. He had a son born about 1790, Lewis II and he had a son, Lewis III, so maybe the grandson was born about 1852.  Thanks again for looking. Maybe it was such a quiet, out of the way town of Starks and when someone died no obit was written. Oh well. Thought I"d try to find something on him. 

At 11:29pm on November 19, 2011, Merrylyn Sawyer said…

Sometimes, as in a census, his name was referred to as Lewis Skillin without the 'g'. 

At 11:28pm on November 19, 2011, Merrylyn Sawyer said…

Sorry I didn't add that!  He died in 1802 and is buried in the Oxbow Cemetery in Norridgewock (used to be in Starks before the land on that side of the Sandy River was ceded over to Norridgewock).  Thank you.
