Thank you so much for the extra information on the CLARKEs.

The family of particular interest to me are the sons of Thomas CLARKE and Harriet nee SMEDLEY, all born Sawley, Derbyshire. Harriet was the sister of my GGrandfather John Thomas SMEDLEY. He emmigrated to Australia in 1889.

John Thomas CLARKE and family emmigrated in 1904. George Henry and Walter Louis in 1911 and Benjamin in the early 1920's I believe. There other brother Albert stayed in Sawley.

They were all involved in the lace trade. George rising to prominance as the General Manager of the Warwick Lace Works at River Point Rhode Island.

I'll have a look at the other CLARKEs as they may be cousins to my GGrandfather's nephews.

Thanks again

Darryl
