thankyou for that but this is the only reference to her i can find i cannot find her baptism in horncastle records even though her brothers are her mum is listed as living in ashton in one census and hatton in 1851.

Could this be her birth entry?

December quarter 1842
Amelia CLARK, Spilsby district, Vol 14, page 541.

Doris, wife's daughter, 2, b. Horncastle.

As millyput said, this child is clearly David and "Wife's son"

I suppose you already have the mariage-
26 July 1849 at Legsby
John MALAM (son of John) to Fanny CLARK (dau of John)

i too have looked at the gro entry for amelia in spilsby but i am just waiting on the birth certificate for my great great.....grandfather alexander on the 4th feb this should give me mother maiden name so i can take it from there his baptism record gives him as a basta*d child to fanny and the same with his brother david and i know she was in the workhouse at the time for both and thankyou yes i have her marriage to  john malam thankyou for your interested .

[millyput]

i have now got my grt grt grandfather birth certificate and his mother fanny clark was unmarried but i thought she may have been married and widowed but if geoff could comfirm the detail in his reply to me that in the marriage record her father is down as john clark and if he knows wether she was down as single ect . 
 also found on one of hs marriage certificate that his father is down as john clark
i do not know how i missed on the igi frances clarke was born 12 mar 1815 in hatton as stated on a census report her father was john and mother mary so a little further but would still love to find out about almira.

many thanks

1851 census looks like Hatton ... this baptism fits perfectly with her census age of 36 http://tinyurl.com/63lk9a3

I have only seen an index - not the register.  If her father hadn't been CLARK, it would have said so, but it doesn't ... so, unless she had previously married a CLARK, I would say it was her first marriage.

I see you have edited your post while I was thinking

[millyput]

yea sorry changed it because i found what i believe her birth i do not know why i couldn't find it before the only thing i did different was put lincoln instead of the usual lincolnshire in the search engine of family search. her birth was hatton. but now i just have to find almira then i could sleep at night   lol   thanks for you help geoff
