The only resources I've found for these Clark families is Massachusetts town vital records, and some bits and pieces about Arthur Clark in several early New England Historical And Genealogical Register articles.   

I don't know the parents of Samuel Clark's wife, Rachel Nichols.  There are many online family trees asserting parents for her, but I haven't found any corroborating records for her parents.
