I'm sorry to have to ask but please may I ask for extra help please ?

I'm struggling to find either the death of Lily or the second marriage to Elizabeth, if that happened.
Any help with either one of them will be much appreciated.

Kind regards,
Sue

Hi Folks,

Just catching up with whats been found so far,.  Sometimes there is a reason for people emigrating - I had noticed that a sister Rosanna Morris married Arthur Clarke in Leicester - registered September 1909 - 7a 499
Arthur Clarke bachelor - lived at 68 Buckingham Street Leicester.
Middle name of father is incorrect on Leicestershire Parish Registers, 1533-1991

Rosanna baptised 14 January 1890

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QP4S-23YX

The couple are on the 1911 census in Leicester

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X75H-1VT

Arthur Clalrke born 1888 Leicester appears on a Massachusetts Passenger List - Liverpool to Boston Massachusetts on the Ivernia arriving 28 February 1913 -  going to to James Morris - 165 Ivy Street New Haven Connecticut.  - wife Mrs Clarke 31 Tyndale Street Leicester.
