  Family 1	John CLARKE,   bur. 4 Nov 1603, St. Peter and St. Paul’s Church, Headcorn, Kent, England
  Married	19 Aug 1594	St. Peter and St. Paul’s Church, Headcorn, Kent, England
  	From transcribed data on KFHS CD 19 - shows Johannes CLARKE married Rebecca BLECHENDEN(East Kent marr index shows John Clark to Reb Blechenden) Suspecting Rebecca was a widow when she married Robert Barling (as Robert treated a Frances Tonge, whose previous surname I think was Clark, in the same way he treated his own married daughters and named her after them before other bequests) I looked for a possible marriage. I looked at all marriages in Kent 1584-1604 of a Clark & variants to a Rebecca (& variants) on FMP on 28 Mar 2016 (includes East Kent Marriage index, all KFHS CDs produced by then and FamilySearch). This was the only one to match and was in Headcorn, a likely location for a wife of Robert Barling to have been living.
