  1. Pete,
    It appears that there have been a number of Clarks in the brick manufacturing business, and in different states. On the hunch that you may have a Clark with New England origins, you may find the following article of interest. If we had a better idea of where you may have found your Clarks, we may be able to come up with more regionally appropriate info. Meanwhile, give
    this article a try.

    ... hope this helps - Fred

  7. My Dad, William O. Clark and his brothers, Robert and George owned and ran the Clark Brick Company in CT. I was born in 1953 so I'm not really certain when the business ended. I heard that my Dad bought out his brothers and then the business went bankrupt. His Dad was R.O. Clark, mentioned above.

  8. I am the last descendant of the Clark Brick Company from Denver which was is business until about 1951 from the late 1800's According to my father who worked at the company after he was adopted into the family we never stamped our bricks. We made mostly sandstone common and clinkers used around Cherry Creek country club.
