(Research):Could he have remarried? A George Truett Clark and Barbara Jean Smith are shown on the Texas Birth Index as being the parents of Jennifer Leigh Clark (b. 1963, Nacogdoches) and George Taylor Clark (b. 1970, Jefferson County). It doesn't seem likely, however, as his 2001 obituary lists his wife as Maxine, and shows only four children.
