Same Charles

Charles Scott Clarke or Scott
Baptised 9/10/1854 St Peter Derby
By Peter Eley Scott and Mary Clarke

Peter Healey Scott 1819 Notts died 1879 unmarried on census returns.Probate under £7000 so a wealthy guy.
So is this Philip Heakey Clarke,ie should be Healey not Heakey.

With help, I hope that I have traced Violet Scott Clarke but at no point do these records show any connection to her brother. Which leads me to believe this person is in no way my relation. I will leave the details here however and will try again to track Charles Robert Clarke through Irish records.

Well, I drew up another tree with lots of records for Violet Scott Clarke through Kate Elizabeth and Tom Carter. Then I went back to the doubt about whether this was my grandmother Violet and looked closer to home. The West Yorkshire parish records indicate that this Violet married William Morris Cooper in 1928 (I think she died in 1967). This has now decided me that I was indeed issued with a wrong birth certificate, but I have family documents to show that the date of birth 5 Feb 1898 is correct for my grandmother.

So now I'm going to have to go back to her brother Charles Robert Clarke, son of Elizabeth L Reynolds of Ireland. I've tried this before and the prospect of dealing with Irish records again is not appealing. I may need to call on Genes Reunited contacts that I have made over the years and ask for further advice.

Thanks everyone for your help with this, perhaps we'll meet again.
Sue.
