Dear Listers, Many thanks to Gilly and Antony who have helped me on this. I have now seen the 1911 censuses via genesunited and find that Roy's father was nor Harry but Charles Edward Clarke and mother Emily. Gilly helped with a probable siting of Ada in 1901and I think the Manchester one is the most likely, not the Barrow one, and Antony suggested a birth also in Manchester in 1882. However, my attempts to find Ada on the 1891 census have come up with no matches under any spellings on genesunited. I would stll welcome any suggestions re Ada's said links with the Co-op Society, suffragette membership and JP or Magistrate at Salford. Best wishes, Mary
