Clark (AKA Bloomfield)

Clark was laid out in Mechanic Township in 1818. It is unique in that the town portion north of Cross Street was located in Holmes County, & the part south of Cross Street was in Coshocton County. The plat was acknowledged before a Justice of the Peace in 1823. For a time Clark was a thriving village. Over the years it supported a number of businesses including three groceries, two hotels, two blacksmith shops, a furniture store, a barber shop, a harness shop, and a tin shop. There were also two steam saw and planing mills and a cider press.
