	Well as His mother was'nt married to his father perhaps he did'nt know who he was, and the Clark chap obviously was'nt then. If this distant rellie knows that Thomas Robert Ranson is her son maybe you could find out how? jax

	On the 1851 Census Amos Clark is 11 on the 1861 he is 12 the birth reg that I could find which was Amos Clarke 1849. On the earlier census's he seemed to be known as Clark but if those are his marriages...he married as Ranson jax
