Hello
Louisa Lawrence married John Clarke a Drover in 1887. Her two sons John Charles Edwards, and Joseph Charles Edwards changed their surname to Clarke. John Charles was also noted on his Death Certificate as Charles Thomas Edwards known as Joseph Clarke. This man was my Husbands Grandfather. He was killed by a horse on a Station at Cloncurry. His brother Joseph Charles Edwards was known all his life as Jack Clarke!! It took me months to find the Death Certificate... I doubt if Charles and Louisa were ever married. Louisa had a Hotel in Camooweal for many years. I do have a photo of Louisa. I hope this information has been of some help. Carol
