Description
A transcript of a WPA Interview conducted by Chas R. Fuller with Sterling P. Clark in the 1930s. Clark was born on December 1, 1861 in Keller, TX and didn't move fully to Fort Worth until February 9, 1888. Clark describes events that he has been told about such as his father enlisted in the Confederate army, Sixth Texas Calvary. He recalls another story of a Dr. Barkley in Birdville that was almost hanged due to being a Union sympathizer, but was saved by Clark's father. Clark also recalls other events such as an Indian Raid near Henrietta Creek in 1868.
