Augustus George Bruce CLARK (Aberdeen, London, Bordeaux).
« on: Thursday 05 July 18 18:37 BST (UK) »
Good evening !
I'm writing these lines from France.
Recently, I discovered that my ancestor was Augustus George Bruce CLARK (1817-1891, born in Scotland in Old-Aberdeen and died in France in Bordeaux).
So, I'm writing this message hoping someone would be able to learn me informations about this person and maybe also about his descendants.
I already consulted this interesting link:

In advance, I thank you a lot to help me to complete my puzzle.
Kind regards,
E.B.

His probate is here - it gives his date of death and place where he was living. Unfortunately as it just says Administration that means there wasn't a will.

Groom,

Does the marriage give his age?

From what EB has, AGBC was born 1817 i.e. would be approx 59 yrs when he married?

Is this possibly a son or g/son or is there an error with dates from EB?

Possibly a second marriage as there is a baptism in London on 6th June 1857 for William Joseph Clark son of Augustine George Bruce Clark ( a merchant) and Sarah. William was born 22nd July 1855 in Bordeaux.
