Potty,

Harry and his father's occupations were labourers. His address is just listed as Plumstead on the Marriage Certificate.

His age at the time of marriage was 23.

Thank you for taking an interest an helping me

Joan, what where Harry and his father's occupations on the marriage cert. Also, what address was Harry living at when he married?

To answer your question above, Limehouse is East London, on the Thames.

It is a while since my last post. I now have Harry's death cerificate. He passed away in Lithgow, NSW Australia on 14th September 1933 aged 71 years. His father is listed as John Clark and his mother Annie Jenkins. I cannot find a marriage for these two and I cannot find any siblings of my Harry/Henry anywhere!!
Can anyone help please?

Thank you!

I will try further to discover his birth.

You are all wonderful in helping others. It is really appreciated

Joan x

I have the following information on my great grandfather and I was wondering if anyone could add to it. I am pretty sure through census records (1891 and 1901) that Henry/Harry was born in 1863. He is listed as being born in East London. He married my great grandmother Alice Louise Leakey in Plumstead in 1886...that's how I know it's him!! There is a Harry Clark living in Woolwich (near Plumstead) in the 1911 Census, born 1863, but I don't have access to these records. I can't find a birth for him, but I do know his father's name was John Clark (it's on his mariage certificate. You guessed it!!!! Too many John Clark's too!!! Can anyone help me??/ PLEASE!!!!!
