Many thanks once again Stan, i wonder do you at all remember a George Clark English he would be Pie Clarks nephew and lived at Darlington Lane with his Grandma for years as he had a bad chest. it seems the air in Doncaster didn't suit him, when she passed away he had to return to Donny to the family.I suppose he went to school locally too.
: Carhe clearly was just sloppy census
: transcription, but I can testify
: that How/Howe and Clark/Clarke have
: often been used interchangeably over
: the years. Now, when for credit
: identification purposes you are
: asked to say how many letters in
: your mother's maiden-name, there is
: a fifty percent chance you will get
: it wrong!
: Mention of Pie Clarke has been made
: elsewhere on this message page; in
: fact he was recommended as a
: national monument by Bill Oliphant.
: Why? Because those of us old enough
: to have patronised the Eden Cinema
: (aka The Ranch for its penchant in
: showing 'coyboy' films) learned to
: respect his presence there. For many
: years he wielded a long
: window-opening pole (the kind with a
: hook on the end), and used it to
: collar boys misbehaving in HIS
: cinema. With it he could reach along
: to the middle of the cheap bench
: seats at the front of the hall and
: 'howk' you out. Caveat pueri!

: and your family is in both 1891 and
: 1901. The name in 1891 has been
: incorrectly transcribed as Carhe.
: Did not download form but index
: lists George, Sarah and 3 children -
: Alfred 6, Charles 4 and Hannah 5
: months.
:
: In 1901 surname is Clarke. From
: index there are 5 children - 3 above
: plus Margaret 6 and Thomas 3. There
: is also a John J. Moore described as
: a Lodger.
