Thomas Edward Clarke is my great-grandfather he married Mary Alice Dyson in Haslingden, Lancaster, England on 18 March 1899. They had two daughters, Edith Alice Clarke b. 13 December 1899 and Mona Ann born about two years later. They all sailed for America in 1902.

I’m wondering if anyone else is researching this family. Would love to hear from you.
