James Murdock CLARK he was born according to him on dec 15th 1881 at inverurie (this is the name he used on his children birth certificates )
his parents were Alexander CLARK and Elizabeth SIM
James Murdock CLARK emmigrated to canada in 1903 ended up in saskatoon and married in 1916 to an Elizabeth AVERY
