Dear List, I've been researching my ancestor Joseph CLARK/E who has troubled me by stating in both the 1891 & 1901 census returns that he was born @1850 in Tring, BUCKS (ha!). Recently, I received his marriage registration (wed Mary Jane ROBERTS in Gravesend in 1884) which gives his father's name as William CLARK, labourer. I've checked the 1861 and 1871 census returns for a Joseph with father William... with no hits... other than a Joseph CLARK age 10 (in the 1861) living with William & Frances HART and sister Susan CLARK in Hemel Hempstead. This Joseph's birthplace is given as Aldenham, though. I did check the IGI to see if this might be another marriage for Frances... I found a Frances CLARK marrying William HART. And, in 1837, a William CLARK is shown marrying Frances Hayman HEARN in Saint Andrew's, Hertford, Hertfordshire. I'm very interested in this William & Frances. Would anyone on the list please be able to look up William & Frances CLARK on the 1851 census?... hoping this might give some more clues. Sorry for the rambling message. Thank you very much if anyone can help. Susan in Ontario, Canada

Hello Susan, I don't know anything about a Joseph Clark/e born in Tring but I can tell you that the Joseph Clarke born in Aldenham was the son of James Clarke and Frances Potten. James and Frances Clark were my husband's 3xg-grandparents. After James died, Frances married William Hart who was my husband's 3xg-uncle. James and Frances Clark had a daughter called Mary Ann who married James Hart (my husband's gg-grandparents). This probably doesn't help you find your Joseph but might help to eliminate this one from your enquiries.
