In third with 24 percent of the vote, readers selected: My great uncle died in a fire in July 1944 at Hudson House in Clark County. I wonder if you have any information regarding this fire?
Expect to see a story in the near future answering the winning Clark Asks question.
Remember, coming in second or third place in voting does not mean we won’t report on the other two questions, which both have strong reader interest. It just means this story gets top priority.
Also, don’t forget that you can still submit questions of your own at columbian.com/clarkasks. You can also see some of the questions others have shared and the stories we’ve so far written as part of our Clark Asks efforts.

On Sunday, we responded to a reader question and offered up seven places in Southwest Washington where people in wheelchairs can explore the outdoors.
