Sorry didn't answer your questions - I never heard anything about that side of the family. I have a newspaper clipping from Fred & Bertha's 60th wedding anniversary.
Had no idea about the Irish connection either.

Yes they stayed in Southampton and Irene had six children, my dad Ivor was the 3rd.  I have photos and more details - my email address is (*)  if you want to swap more info more easily.
Haven't done DNA yet but would like to one day.

My grandmother was Irene Clarke, b.1914. her father was Frederick John Henry Clarke, b.1886 in Southampton. He married Bertha Orman in 1908.

Sara, Frederick Robert Clarke is my great-great-grandfather on my father's side. I've been trying to decode the place name on the census for ages! Mullaghcarton would make sense as the box isn't big enough to squeeze all that in.
Did you find out any more information about Frederick, when he might have left Ireland and who his parents were? I notice his wife's mother was Irish so I wonder if he stayed with her when he first came over and then took a shine to her daughter?!

Feel free to contact me as we are distantly related :) Or maybe not so distant.
