Perhaps post a request on the New Zealand Board of Rootschat.
Be sure you link this thread.


just another question that I would like to ask

on Charles Clarke death certificate it give information given by his brother in law, D E Ross, which is Donald Ewen Ross who was born on the 12 Sept 1874 at Koriat Victoria and died in France on 20 JUly 1916, is there anything on Donald Ross as he was suppose to be a property owner in new south wales at time.
also where do I go to find the school that Charles Clarke attended in England
thank you

Alexander ROSS and his wife Mary (McGILLVERAY) had at least 10 children in Western Victoria, including Donald Ewen. (At Kirkstall, Reg 16709)

Hi
Some here may have ideas for you, but I think you might get help about it if you posted on the England Board.
The section called not specific to a county.

You would need to give dates and full names and a link to the news item that mentioned the inheritance.

Be sure to link  this post too.

Perhaps someone there will advise you.

If you can copy the relevant part of the newspaper report it would be helpful.

Death of an Angelina Maria CLARKE, nee EVERETT, 70, was registered in Wandsworth (London), Oct/Nov/Dec qr of 1894.  Volume: 1d, p 322

13 Oct 1845 at St Mary, Battersea
Angelina Maria EVERETT, spinster m Charles John CLARKE, bachelor, victualler
Both were of full age and resident in Battersea.
Her father: William Everett, builder
His father:   John Clarke, victualler
Witnesses: John CLARKE, Fanny SPENCER

in 1851 the couple are living with Charles' parents in Kennington - Charles jnr was 18 months old and there is no occupation listed for his father.

Charles is still with them in the 1871 census at 52 Church St, Chelsea
Charles Clarke   46, shoemaker, b Clapham
Angelina Clarke   48, b Brixton
Charles Clarke   21, shoemaker, b Kennington
Mary Clarke   13, b Battersea
Henry Clarke   10, b Waltham Grove
John Clarke   7, b Chelsea

In 1881 Angelina is a 'monthly nurse' with a Mr and Mrs WHITE in Battersea.  She is described as married.  (A monthly nurse was engaged for a period of time to look after a mother and a newborn)

I think this is her in 1891 recorded as 'Anan' CLARKE, b Brixton probably with her son-in-law and daughter Thomas and Mary HEWETT at Westbourne Terrace, Wandsworth.  Again she is described as married but Charles is not with them.

I see a couple of deaths for 'Charles CLARKE' but not enough information to be sure which is the right one.

This MAY possibly be your Charles CLARKE at school; you man's mother was Angelina Maria, and his father in later census was a shoemaker; the age is not quite right either.   ???

Admitted to St Michael's school Westminster, October 25, 1858
Charles CLARKE aged 8 and a half,
Parents: Charles and Maria, occ: shoemaker, residence 10 Hugh St Mews.

I cannot see either of your man's parents on the All England & Wales, National Probate Calendar (Index of Wills and Administrations), 1858-1966 

I think Sue is right - ask on the England board

Hover your mouse over it and right click on mouse so the address turns blue.

On your keyboard press and hold control key (Ctrl)

Now move off to where you want the address (link to be placed)

In the correct place (say in a post on the English board)
On your keyboard press and hold control key (Ctrl)
at the same time click letter v on keyboard.

Now this thread is linked to the new post

 ;D

ADDING
The same procedure applies to the news item.
Open it in the newspaper.
Then follow the above directions.
