(4 Aug. 1901-27 Dec. 1983), genealogical researcher. Born at Dominionville, GC. Parents: Eugene William Barrett and his wife Martha Clark. The family moved about 1905 to western Canada. Clark Barrett, who graduated from the University of Iowa and Columbia University, spent his adult life in the U. S., retiring in 1962 from his work with Dupont. He returned often to GC, especially in connection with his genealogical research, his last visit being in 1982, and he corresponded with Ewan Ross and other GC researchers. Clark Barrett researched the McIntyre and Bell families, and GC families who settled in Plumas County, Calif. Presumably much of his work remains unpublished, including a list he made of the inscriptions on the tombstones of the Maxville Cemetery. He transcribed and circulated in reproduced typescript an important document of Glengarry history, Stories from the Memory of Charles R. Sinclair (1970). Clark Barrett died Chattanooga, Tennessee. He belonged to the Church of Latter Day Saints. He was married to Edna Fellure (d. 1979).
