Cornelia CLARKE (1889-1943) née Cummins (or Comyn?)?
« on: Wednesday 14 July 10 11:28 BST (UK) »
I'd be grateful for any local knowledge about this lady.

I've posted a full account of where we are on the Louth page. See http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=468052.new#new.

The claim of a connection to the Comyn family of Balinderry may be spurious (though it is attested by a fine-art auctioneer's provenance, on "family" information). We need to check it out.

Any helpful guidance gladly received.

I have a book on Tartans and Comyn is one of the Cheiftan tartans.  In some of the books it lists the Chiefs name and how to contact him/her nowadays as well.  They have records of past chiefs their children, and family histories.
You should be able to find a site for the comyn family which may well either help or confuse your research.
