Hi
I did get a lot of help in 2005...
William Clark b 14 Oct 1809 Lumley c 10 Dec 1809 CLS
Married Margaret Oliver b 4 Jul 1811 Houghton c 26 Jul 1811 HLS, on 18 Feb 1832 in HLS
William was son of Richard Clark ( b 1772 Lumley or Pontop or Dipton, c 17 May 1772 Auckland St Andrew, buried (possibly ) Pittington 8 Nov 1846. Richard was married to Ann Iveson (b 1771 Coundon, c 17 Aug 1771 Auckland St Andrew (AA) buried 6 Oct 1830 Pittington).
Margaret was d/o Robert Oliver b abt 1784 Monk Hesledon, c 19 Jun 1818, d 1851-1861, and Alice Tewart b abt 1787 Dubmire, HLS, c 15 Jul 1787 HLS, died 1830 Collier Row, HLS, bur 10 Dec 1830 HLS. They were married 11 Apr 1808 HLS. Robert later married Ann Wright 10 Aug 1835 in HLS.
Richard Clark was son of William Clark b (I think) 9 Jan 1726 Lumley, buried 20 Apr 1788 AA. He was a linen weaver in Bishop Auckland. Richard married Ann Iveson b 1771 Coundon, c 17 Aug 1771 AA, buried 6 Oct 1830 Pittington., married 20 Jun 1797 AA.
Ann was d/o Joseph Iveson (1731, c 15 Jan 1731 Cassop, bur 13 Mar 1790 Coundon) and Mary Rodam (possibly) b after 1735 c 18 Mar 1738 Stanhope died 1784 Coundon, bur 11 Apr 1784 AA, married 16 Dec 1765 AA. Mary is possibly linked to Hilary Rodam Clinton, but no records to prove this!
William married a Mary....(and this is a bit of a guess!) Mary Slack b abt 1724 died 26 Feb 1811 AA, buried 28 Feb AA. They were married before 1753. Evidence is based on first four childrens names ...Rachel, George, Joseph and Elizabeth, which match William being son of George Clark b 1689 in Lumley c 5 May 1689 CLS, married 18 Oct 1712 (CLS) to Elizabeth Robinson or Roginson b 1688 Lumley c 27 Dec 1688 CLS. Mary was d/o Joseph Slack and Rachel Middleton, married 14 Dec 1725 Middleton in Teesdale. Would need to go through the actual registers to check this out!
That's a potted summary; William Clark b 1726 had a large family....Rachel 1753, George 1755, Joseph 1757, Elizabeth 1760, Mary 1764, John 1767 and Richard 1772. Son George carried on the linen weaving business and in 1841 his wife Ann (nee Longstaff) was listed in William Street Auckland, as 95 years old, Worsted Dealer, living with Rachel (now Brown, aged 60) who carried on the business (1851 census). Headstone for Ann, Rachel and some children is still in the churchyard at Auckland St Andrew (South Church)
I think the link back to Lumley is telling...there were a lot of clarks there in 1580-1700, leasing land from lord Lumley, and then getting some more in Witton Gilbert. Not possible to sort it out, though...to many with the same names!!!
