Elizabeth Clark Griffiths

Elizabeth Clark Griffiths was the former Elizabeth Clark of St. Albans, one of the daughters of Dr. Samuel Clark of St. Albans, which explains her connection to the Doddridge girls. She was married to the bookseller/publisher and widower Ralph Griffiths (1720-1803), founder and editor of the Monthly Review, 1749-1803, on 20 October 1767, as recorded in the Middesex Parish Records, both listed as from the parish of Chiswick (West London) and witnessed by William Rose and Samuel Clark, Jr. One of their sons, George Edward Griffiths, was baptized at the Albany Independent chapel in Brentford on 11 October 1771 (see Antonia Forster, "Griffiths, Ralph," ODNB).
