That's Clare's great great aunt, she's painted a stamp

Clare's great great aunt Margaret Clarke (nee Crilley) has painted a stamp, we ordered some and they just arrived today:

From Flickr

It was issued for St Patrick's day and we only just found out when a relative was visiting from Ireland.

Margaret Clarke is Clare's great aunt TWICE, beat that! Margaret Clarke was married to Harry Clarke, and Margaret's sister Mary married Harry's brother Walter. Walter and Mary are Clare's great grand parents. There is no connection we can find to our Clarkes, but if anyone has any info on Walter and Harry's father Joshua who moved to Ireland from Leeds, or his father (Gilbert maybe?) please do chip in...

Over to you, discussion about anything local, but please be considerate... Folkestone on TV, Kent gigs, Find a flatmate, rent a room, property queries, current news, what's new, local events, for sale, local services, what I like about Folkestone, ask questions, offer advice, plug yourself... the more it's used the more useful a resource it will become. If you want a gig listed click here to add it (fixed now!), or just click here to post a message...
