Devon Lookup Requests / CLARK family of Devon
« on: Thursday 27 September 12 14:54 BST (UK)  »
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

Can someone please tell me what is meant when I see a date with the words Cir or Circa in front of it.
I found some information today regarding my Grimsey lineage and saw that several times

Thank you in advance for anyone who can shed light on this for me

Cornwall / ROGERS family of St Erth Cornwall
« on: Friday 01 April 11 01:55 BST (UK)  »
Hello everyone,
I am interested in finding information and if I dare say it ... photo's of my great grandfather's family. 
Charles Henry Rogers immigrated to NZ abt 1880 and married Mary Mitchelmore Clark in Reefton NZ on the 30 July 1881 He was a miner there till his death on the 26 October 1898 and was buried in Reefton.  He left behind 6 surviving children. My grandfather being the youngest son.
Charles Henry Rogers family were from St Erth Cornwall,  I have been lucky enough to trace many of the families but would dearly love to see if anyone has a photo of my g-grandfather etc.
