Biographical Summary
Richard Clarke is one of the
Mayflower passengers for whom almost nothing is known. His
name is not known to have occurred in the records of Leiden, so he was
probably one of the passengers who joined the voyage from England.
The only record of his existence is William Bradford's naming him as a
passenger, and saying simply that he died the first winter and left no
descendants at Plymouth. The Clarke surname is far too common to
do any serious research, so there is little hope of ever discovering or
learning more about this passenger. |
