Hello.
I am searching for my Clark ancestors from Devon. At this point most of the information I have regarding this family is hearsay. My gg Grandfather is Edward Saunders Clark. He was christened 27 Feb 1831 in Marlborough Devon. No father mentioned. Mother Elizabeth Clark. I can't find them on any census, but that may be because I get confused with the census areas
His first wife was Ann Mitchelmore, christened 09 Sept 1827, and they married about 1851, and died 10 April 1859 in Dodbrooke. They had 4 children, Elizabeth Ann, William, Henry and Mary the youngest, who is also my g Grandmother. Ann died shortly after Mary was born.
On his way to New Zealand Edward Saunders Clark met and married Susan Murley in Australia, then settled in Hokitika NZ...he died in Dannevirke NZ in 1900. Have sent away for a copy of his death cert.
Any help with the Clark family will be so greatfully appreciated
Thank you
