Hello Ann Thank you for your reply re the Clarke Family. I agree that Your Anastasia Doyle (b 1840) and my James Clarke will probably be cousins. Anastasia is not a common name so there is a fair chance that it is a family name. James' Death Certificate shows him born at Barina or maybe Basina or variation of this in County Wexford. Do you have any knowledge of this place? Pat Chalkley Newcastle NSW Aust
