Info required on descendants of Thomas Clarke "the Elder" (1790-1859) born in Oakham, Rutland, and his son Thomas Clarke "the Younger" (1817-1891) who owned a dyeworks in Loughborough. Thomas the Younger had two sons who continued the dyeworks: John (1848-1916) and William (1853-1905). John had a son Alan Bernard (c.1886-1968) a genealogist. I am descended from a third son Frederick (1841-1896) who was not in the dyeworks business. The Loughborough dyeworks was sold c.1957.
