I have since found out more about Herbert CLARKE.
He had another daughter, Mary, who married Thomas BENSLEY. She lived in Bolt Court, Fleet Street, London, in the early 1800's.
The BENSLEYs apparently had at least nine children, also registered at Dr. Williams' Library (Protestant Dissenters' Register). The birth registration for Mary BENSLEY (b. 1789, regd. 1790) gives the mother's father as "Herbert CLARKE, Gent., of Uxbridge". (Uxbridge, formerly in Middlesex, is on the western edge of present-day Greater London, next to Buckinghamshire.)
Familysearch.org lists only one Herbert CLARKE in the right time and place:
Elizabeth PUTNAM of Chesham, Buckinghamshire, married Mr.
Herbert CLARKE, b. abt. 1730. They married Jan. 15, 1758, in St. Clement Danes, Westminster, London.
She died in 1807, and he in 1808.
Both are buried in Hillingdon, Middlesex (which is next to Uxbridge).
The London Metropolitan Archives has a will, proved in 1808, for Herbert CLARKE, "Gentleman, [of] Uxbridge, formerly of Drury Lane". (Drury Lane runs north-west from near St. Clement Danes Church in London.)
The date, residence, former residence, and status all fit with the familysearch.org entry for Herbert CLARKE and Elizabeth PUTNAM.
The familysearch Pedigree Research File says Elizabeth PUTNAM, daughter of William PUTNAM and Mary BARNS, was chr. Chesham, Buckinghamshire, June 17, 1733.
Will post more on this family as I find it. --Jane Elderfield
