    3. Hi All, I am hoping to trace any relatives descended from my second cousins AMY & MARY CLARKE. Amy (born c1903) and Mary (born c1904) CLARKE emigrated from GLOUCESTER in the UK, arriving on 14 March 1925 in Melbourne aboard the ship Balranald. Passenger lists show: Clarke. Mary Domestic F 21 S England British Clarke. Amy Domestic F 22 S England " Mary worked 'in service' in Melbourne first at Carmyle Avenue TOORAK. By 1927 she was at 22 Wilis St, MALVERN (possibly with a family DODDS) and later at 321 Glenferry Rd. Malvern. I presume that Amy was also in service; Mary's letters tell us that she (Amy) married and was living at OAK PLAINS with her husband and his two brothers. Amy had a daughter in 1927 giving birth at the Balranald Hospital. Mary became engaged to 'Arthur' in late 1927. Little is known of him other than he had a married brother in TRAWALA ( Letters also mention 'Arthur's married brother in BALLARAT' - could be another brother or the same one in a different place) Does anyone know anything about them?
