MORE CENSUS INFORMATION - CLARKE FAMILY

The previous post shows Henry Clarke aged 33 living with his wife Edna aged 29 and his 3 daughters, Evelyn 4, Helena 2 and Mary Jane 1 at Bantons Lane, Ticknall, Derbyshire. He was listed in the census as working as a groom. (1901 census)

On the 1911 census - 10 years later - there is no mention of Henry Clarke - His wife Edney or Edna is listed as living at Derby Hills, Melbourne, Derbyshire. (this is between Ticknall and Melbourne - Known as The Common) She was a listed as widowed, a charwoman, living with Helena 12 and Mary Jane 11. (Evelyn would have been 14 by then and possibly working 'in service' ?)

would be interested to find out what happened to Henry Clarke.............
