Wetherden/Wyverstone query

Hi All,

An H.E. Clamp has popped up in my inquiries into British Secret Service activities in the 1890s.

I would like to establish whether or not it is this person -

Herbert Ephraim Clamp, poet and US newspaper columnist–

Birth:       Jan. 14, 1861, Suffolk, England
Census 1881:   Grocer and Draper, Bildeston, Suffolk
Marriage:      June 1882, [Ipswich], Agnes Sarah Ann Miller
Death:       Mar. 16, 1911, New York, USA

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Simon

Simon,
H. E. Clamp came to the US in 1886. 
Correct year of death is 1910.

Regards,
Sam

Hi Sam,

Many thanks for the correction and extra information.

As far as I can ascertain, H.E. Clamp wrote just one volume of poetry: "The Pleasures of Human Life, and Other Poems", published by Joseph Merrell, Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk [1877]. I think the volume was privately printed.

Regards,

Simon
