The Clark Dickey Cemetery is located in Sabine County, Texas. William Clark and Mahala Graham Clark are my (paternal) 5th great grandparents. William Clark fought in the War of 1812. Because of the records I have found on Ancestry, my father has recently been accepted as a member of the Sons of the Republic of Texas.
