Clark. He is said to have built the first gristmill in the old town, and thus the first west of the Mississippi. The house that he built in the new village was still standing in 1888. He was commissioned as one of the first judges of the court of common pleas and quarter sessions, and continued in office until his death. Vital first located at the Saline, but about 1791 came to Ste. Genevieve and built the house now occupied by Mrs. Menard. Note: a copy of his judicial commission can be found in the Draper manuscripts.
