Thanks Diddy, yes it is great to get results... there are so many twists and turns and the Clarke line is ONGOING (forever)  rellies coming out from under every bush... exciting... One poor soul - the rest of the family for some reason totally forgot about... would love to ask my Nan why... Well I will ONE day - but hope its not too soon.

I tried to talk to my Uncle regarding the family this week, and it was heartbreaking - he even forgot the matriarch of the family, and didnt recognise his own fathers picture...
He is NOT old only in 70's
It seems I am the only one in my generation that it matters to.   

so  we have to GRAB info when we can.
