Biography:
CLARKE, G. Wallingford (fl 1828)
Born in Kentucky, he contributed verse occasionally to periodicals and annuals, and published two collections in 1828 and 1829. At least one New York magazine, The Critic, reviewed the second volume harshly ("unvarying dullness": 21 Feb. 1829) and he is later on record only as a lawyer practising in Louisville KY--at least as late as 1857.
