Lawrence County Photographs





Unknown Lawrence County School
This picture is of a school in probably Lawrence County between 1890-1915. It is stamped on the back, "Burns photographer, Black Rock Ark, No extra charges for, groops" (spelled that way). $1 to $3 per doz. The picture came from possessions of my great-great aunt who passed away in 1993. This could also be a photo from the possessions of my great-great-great uncle Will Clark but three other school photos were in the same box as these and not from that line. Hoping someone out there can identify any one in the photo.

Clark Livery Stable, Lawrence County, Arkansas
The photo is of the Clark Livery Stable that was located in either Black Rock or Imboden Arkansas at the turn of the century. The reason I do not know which town it was in is because my father says Imboden but my grandma took me to Black Rock about two weeks ago and showed me the house our Clark family lived in during the same period of time and that was in Black Rock. This house is going to be restored and used as some kind of historical place. It is a large white house on a hill and kind of prominent in such a small town.

     This photo almost definitely came from the possessions of my great-great-great uncle Will Clark (b. 29 Oct 1874 in Shelby County, TN d. unknown). I descend from his sister Clara Bertha or Bertha Clara Clark Haulcroft (3 Oct 1875- 31 Oct 1938). Will and his brothers John Edward Clark and James Cleveland Clark were all merchants/store owners at one time in this area as well as runners of this stable. I have no info on the dates of death for Will or his wife Nellie (my grandma is named for her), John, or James. I am assuming all died after 1941 as that is when the mother of Clara Bertha, Will, James, and John died and the dated family bible stops. Hoping someone out there connects or enjoys the photo just the same!
