Carl A. Clark was the first of two sons of Lewis & Sarah (Tyler) Clark. At age 10 with his widowed mother and younger brother Fred he moved into a new house in Marlborough. Carl graduated from Marlborough High School in 1905 and soon thereafter met his future wife, Louise Freeman, living with her aunt & uncle across the street. They married 16th September 1907 and had four sons, Robert Earl, Laurence Nelson, Lewis Freeman and Kenneth Edward Clark. Carl worked for the City of Marlborough most of his career and was a member of the State Guard. He served as deacon of the Unitarian Church for a number of years. He was an avid gardener and raised chickens for many years somewhat as a hobby (with income). Like his wife, Louise, he was very close to his sons and grandchildren with whom Summer holidays would be spent on the Coast of Maine. Carl liked to hunt pheasant & deer and benefitted from an on-site shooting range for practice in the old sand & gravel pit. He often hosted clam bake outings for City employees on the property, which he acquired from his mother around 1940.
