Bill Bloomquist, I have several of the names listed on your message that also repeat throughout my family tree.John Clarke my Great Great Grandfather married a Susan,Nee name unknown and lived in Trinty .Their son Aubrey had a large family with sons named Samuel born 1883. Thomas 1888, Richard 1892 who was my Grandfather. George 1904, Robert 1897,Joseph 1898? and daughters Rebecca,Mary, Minnie. I believe that John's father came to Newfoundland from Northern Ireland.All of their children carried the same names plus William, Gordon, Harry, Cecil,Charles,Robert and so on.I also have a large data base of Clarkes directly decendent from Aubrey Clarke and Mary nee Stevenson. I'm very interested in a connection earlier than My Great Great Grandfather John. Maybe your Data Base has it.
