My cousin also passed along a bit more on Harriet Mills Clark. Harriet's mother died fairly early in her life, and the children were apprenticed out. It is believe Harriet was sent to Fitchburg and worked learned from a Mrs. Jewett, She resented the fact that she had been bound out, because there were relatives who could have taken her in, This experience helped her bond with Asa Wright, who had been bound out to a farmer after the death of his father, Joseph.
