POSSIBLY the William A. Clarke who died, age 76, 13 Oct 1889 in Fredericton? If so, the following obituary is his:
"The tall erect form of William A. CLARK will no more be seen on our streets. He died at the residence of his son-in-law, Geo. H. SIMMONS on Sunday last from cancer in the stomach. Mr. Clark was in his 77th year and years ago was one of the most prosperous manufacturers in the city. The principal lumber firms received their supply of boots at his factory, but a succession of lumber failures brought severe loss and some 12 or 15 years ago he withdrew from business on an extended scale. About four years ago, finding his health failing, he took up his residence at Lakeville Corner, Grand Lake (Queens Co.). He is survived by his second wife, one son, Chas. N. CLARK, boot and shoe manufacturer, and two daughters, Mrs. Geo. H. SIMMONS and Mrs. John EDWARDS. The funeral took place Tuesday, the services at house and grave performed by Rev. Job Shenton and Rev. Geo. B. Payson." 19 October 1889 NBR

[217] Also, possibly Rachel (as indicated by notes on Census records "online"). This "person" has certainly offered confusion to researchers, over the years. IF Harriet and Rachel are the same, she is listed twice in the 1881 Census. Once with her parents, and once with her husband and his family as "dil" for "daughter-in-law". My personal opinion is that the Rachel in the Census records was the 24 year-old listed in 1881 was actually 29 not 24, Harriet was listed as 16 in 1871. However, if you look at both Seretha and Henrietta, the same holds true for them. (And I thought the vanity of not telling one's age for women, didn't start until a bit later in life!)
