I am trying to acquire information on John Clark or Clarke, and his family. John Clark was born in 1841 in Denham, England. Clark was the son of James Clark and Anne Lowe and local and family oral history relates John served aboard a Confederate blockade-runner breaking through Union ships lying off the southern ports during the American Civil War. John was said to have worked 7 years as a ship's carpenter before arriving in Australia aboard the HMS "Resolute" in 1863. Six months later he was said to have returned to England and then went to the United States where he was among the crew of a number of blockade running ships during the American Civil War. He later returned to Australia where died and was buried.
Any information anyone can provide on this individual will be greatly appreciated. jamesmgray@bigpond.com
