John was born on March 26th, 1575 and his baptism took place on March 26th, 1575 in Rotherhithe, Surrey, England. John's father was William Clarke and his mother was Margaret Walker. His paternal grandfather was Thomas Clarke; his maternal grandfather was Nicholas Walker. He was an only child. He died at the age of 48 in 1623 in Virginia.General Notes
John was the Master's Mate and pilot of the "Mayflower", and accompanied the Pilgrims on many of the exploring parties, piloting the shallop. Clark's Island in Duxbury Bay is named after him, because he miraculously brought the shallop ashore during a strong storm on one of these expeditions. John was given two shares in the Virginia Company for his service. He sailed to Virginia on 10 April 1623 in Daniel Gookin's ship, the "Providence", and died shortly after he arrived.
