Looking for Clark
« Reply #21 on: Tuesday 12 May 09 17:04 BST (UK) »
I am quite new to this and i am having trouble tracing my gt grandparents.  My grandfather was calle William Smith Clark born June 25th 1908 died 29 Nov 1971.  He was married to Mary Garbutt in 1930.  I have traced my grandmothers family but i am having trouble tracing Williams.  Is ther anyone out there that can help with the names of his parents.  It is thought that he was born in Byker.

Thank you for reading

Moderator Comment:  I have now merged this post with an earlier one that was covering the same ground.  I hope this will make it easier for all but they go in date order so some answers may seem out of sequence.

Hi jac
It does help if you give as much detail as possible.   How do you know the father was George Henry?   If you have that marriage certificate then it should have witnesses names and also occupations.  Can you quote those?  What age does it give for William then?   I had a quick look for a birth in 1908 but could not see one.

Not doing too well here!   There is a possible marriage in 1906 for a George Clark on www.freebmd.org.uk where one of the brides is called Smith - just guessing that that might be her name.
You did not say why you think the father was George and not Henry.  Where does the idea of Byker as a birth place come from?
Any idea whether your grandfather was the only child?
Have a look at free bmd and see if any names leap out at you.
