Go to Handbook of TX Online http://www.tsha.utexas.edu/handbook/online/index.new.htmlhttp://www.tsha.utexas.edu/handbook/online/index.new.html
type in HooDoo, and first item will give you some info on the war and your John Clark.And, why he may have left Mason Co, too.
I would check with the Mason Co, TX GenWeb site, and the Burnet Co, TX GenWeb site, see what they may have online.Some GenWeb counties are putting their cemeteries online, some are getting other info online, too.Post your query, plus ask if anyone has a county history, and would they check for any further info on John, his death, parents, family etc.
Usually when a man holds some kind of local positiion, elected or otherwise, if he moves on there's a good chance he will follow the same life style.He mayhave had some kind of position in Burnet Co, TX, too.
