Patricia. They are correct, it is Mary louisa Skinner as was befor marriage. Is this still the same family as yours. If so how are you connected. Reguards Christine

Hi Katie What connection have you got with the Clarke family? Reguards CHRISTINE

None of these people are connected to your family christine we just like to help if we can

jax

Hi Kathleen, What conection do you have with the Clarke family Reguards CHRISTINE

Christine,

I don't think any of us who have replied on here have any connection with the Clarke family. Members on Genes just use the subscriptions they have to certain sites to do look-ups for people. This is what we have done.
