From “Taylor’s Legislative History of Connecticut, 1897-1912”
Noyes Dwight Clark of Bethany the only child of Dwight N. and Althea Bradley Clark was born in Woodbridge April 2, 1869. He distinguished himself in the Scientific Department at Yale graduating in 1891, and in 1894 took the degree of CE. During 1896 and 1897 he was successfully engaged in New Haven City Engineer’s office. His father was a prominent member of the Legislature during 1859 and 1860, and is widely and favorably known as a dealer in choice cattle. Mr. Clark has the honor of being the first Republican in his town to be nominated and elected Representative by both parties. He is a staunch Republican, but represents a strongly Democratic town. He was the efficient clerk of the Committee on Education and gained a large circle of friends at the Capitol, who highly esteem him for his sterling qualities. He richly merits continued honors from the hands of his townsmen.
