Brick Wall - Jane Clark(e), Derbyshire (1823-?)
« on: Friday 13 February 26 15:13 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to locate Jane Clark(e) of Chaddesden, Derbyshire.

Christened in St Mary’s Church, Chaddesden 25th May 1823
Parents:
William Clark(e), Farm Labourer (abt 1791 - 1867)
and Ann (abt 1795 - 1879)

Jane had a child, Reuben Clarke, out of wedlock - Born 15th June 1843 and Christened 27 Dec 1846, (in Chaddesden)
No idea who his father is.

Reuben was living with his grandparents in the 1851 Census. No sign of Jane.
I am assuming she got married, moved away or died. I have checked potential marriages, census’ and death records but have not been able to move this research forward.

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you

in 1861 he is working for John Barker, Farmer of 220 acres, as a 'servant' in Chaddesden.
Luckily they were accurate with Reubens, age and place of birth which helped to find him relatively quickly.
In 1871 he was Married to Emma (Carrington) with two children, still living in Chaddesden

Thank you CaroleW, I have looked at the images for this marriage and I am doubtful that this is the correct Jane. This has Jane's father as 'John Clarke' a pot burner. My Jane's father is called William.

Thank you for looking this record out and letting me know though, it is another one to tick off the list as a possibility. Much appreciated

Not having much luck I’m afraid but there is a Jane Clark charwoman born 1823 who died 15 May 1862.

Spital Cemetery Chesterfield

Sorry I don’t know areas in Derbyshire but this Jane would be around in 1861 to check out.

Nothing else obvious with Chaddesden birthplace  :-\

Did she have siblings to check out to see if she was with them?  You have probably tried that.

Where was your Jane Clark in 1841?

She's not with the family in 1841 Chaddesden Village
William 50, Ann 45 , Andrew 15, Emma 14, German 9 and Henery 6
1841 https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M7SG-93N?lang=en

And as you mentioned not with her parents, brother and her son in 1851
1851 https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:SGD8-G6F?lang=en

Could she have left the UK after birth Reuben? Have you checked passenger lists?

Who is Reuben with in 1861?

in 1861 he is working for John Barker, Farmer of 220 acres, as a 'servant' in Chaddesden.
Luckily they were accurate with Reubens, age and place of birth which helped to find him relatively quickly.
In 1871 he was Married to Emma (Carrington) with two children, still living in Chaddesden


Reuben's marriage on 11 Nov 1867 to Emma Carrington
his father named as John occ boatman ???
