Clarkson brothers, Winnipeg and Vancouver
« on: Friday 10 February 23 11:15 GMT (UK) »
In my tree I have three Clarkson brothers who went to Canada:

Vivian Hugh, born in Hampstead 1889, died in Winnipeg July 1961
(married Gladys Pitcher)
Guy Seddon, born in Essex 1892, died in Vancouver 27 Mar. 1952
(married Ruth McMartin)
Geoffrey, born in Essex 1897, died in Vancouver 2 May 1984
(I think he married Mary Manders and Mildred Hoar).

Is anyone else researching this family or can tell me more about them and their children?
The name is unfortunately more common than I thought,
so it would be easy to confuse them with other Clarksons.

Thanks for pointing that out. 
I think time reversal works only on the sub-atomic scale (if at all).
Corrected now (d. 1984).
