I know this isn't the direction you are going in, but I would be interested in the cause of death of the boys. I have a brother and sister whose deaths are within a week of each other. He died of bronchitis and his death certificate makes clear that this was a long term condition, but his sister died of typhoid and I can't help feeling that that was his actual cause of death.

If the boys also died of inflammation of the lungs, it would have been some thing much more fast acting than tb.

It would be interseting, but I can't afford the certs at the moment, will put them on my list.

Sadly the free Ancestry weekend is over, but at least I have located one of my aunts and added a few more names to my tree.
It is interesting that the whole Clarke family seem to have moved to London from Norwich, perhaps for a better life? Then a couple of them moved to Canada as well. Thanks for the help.

My granny moved from Norfolk to Surrey. She was the eldest child. She found jobs for most of her sisters and the all came south. About four generations earlier, a distant aunt of hers was doing exactly the same thing.
Norfolk had all sorts of problems in the 1800s: the woollen industry had gone, the shoe industry declining and the import of cheap grain from the States spelt the decline of agriculture. Weavers went to Bradford, labourers onto the railways, or to the mines in the North East.
