The Old Clark Cabin ca 1939 2015-11-28 - On Green River before Green River Lake Flooded it . Old Clark Cabin This photo is in the archives of Larry Clark. On the front porch, from left, Jess Clark, then Larry Clark's grandmother, Cordie Clark; Wency Clark, and her baby Jimmy; the next couple is Hank Kruse & his woman; (???), and on the end of the porch, Larry's father Jimmy Golden Clark. The cabin had to be torn down when the Corps of Engineers confiscated the Clark's 112 acres and gave them $12,500. The family had to go in debt and bought a 100 acre farm on Russell Creek - one the old Hindman farms on Russell Creek. The creek wasn't the same as the river, Larry Clark, remembers. I can remember we sat on the front porch in Milltown and sang for the old place. Our song was "I Wanta Go Home." It was popular then. Out of frame on the left, is Larry Clark's grandfather, Aaron Clark. And the handsome little dog? Larry Clark doesn't remember it's name, but recalls that it died after being bitten by a rattlesnake.
