History
Clark Bentom was a missionary and surgeon—and one-time footman to Wilbur Wilberforce. He was born in England ca. 1774 and died in Jamaica ca. 1820. On 24 March 1800 he and John Mitchell, another missionary from the London Missionary Society, sailed aboard the Ephron from Liverpool to Quebec, where he served as a minister and occasional surgeon until his return to England in 1805.
