McCLINTICK John Provine b. 10/10/1818 d. 05/05/1862
*****
Son of JOHN McCLINTOCK, JR. [McCLINTICK], who in 1809 married MARY PROVINE, a native of Tennessee, and became one of the county's substantial citizens. He owned a large farm, five miles north of Jeffersonville, on the road that runs from Utica township west to Blackiston's Mill, near Cementville.

"It was John McClintick, Jr's daughter, [Caroline McClintick] who became the wife of EMERY SYLVESTER and shared his joys as well as his sorrows, for nearly fifty years. She survived him about four years and passed away March 8, 1889. Six children were born of this union: Mary, Charlotte, Caroline, Emery, John and Commodore C. The last named died in childhood, and both of the other sons passed away in their twentieth years. The three daughters own the home place, consisting of two hundred and fifteen acres of land and have made their residence there since the death of their mother.

"The Sylvesters and McClintocks being among the earliest settlers, have been known in Clark County for over a hundred years, and no families have enjoyed greater esteem. One of the proud recollections cherished by the latest generation of Sylvesters is that the grandfather, JOHN McCLINTOCK, JR. [again should be McCLINTICK], was a soldier with Gen. William Henry Harrison at the celebrated battle of Tippecanoe."
