Just wanted to add another two names for Hemochromatosis - McCloskey's and Brown's from the Killymard Parish of Donegal Ireland. I have been gene tested and have one of the genes - however which ancestor passed it on I do not know. They were my Grandparents on my Mother's side. The O'Flaherty's side seems fine at the moment.

Wow..this got sidetracked..yes, we are definitely related..distant cousins..my paternal gf was a brother to Joseph (Joe).The Civil War shattered the family in Clinton. By some means my gf found his way west to Cincy briefly and then to St. Louis..He married Mary Byrnes (she was originally from Cincy) They moved from St. Louis to Decatur in central Illinois..children: two boys and two girls..tragically the girls, one son, and the father (my gf) died of TB in the plague that existed then. My father was the only one of the children to have offspring..my brother and I...I live In Brighton, Michigan just north of Ann Arbor..82 y.o...hope that his has been helpful Jim Clarkson

I just started researching this family, and today found this death certificate from their daughter:
DEATH CERTIFICATE:MO State Board of Health #13740 Miss Mildred Susan Clarkson; Father Manoh Clarkson b. Lynchburg, VA; Mother Lucy Dejarnette b. Charlottesville, VA; Died of Bronchio-Pneumonia; Buried Dalton, MO Thomas J. Clarkson signed death certificate. She was born in 1838
There are a few Manoah Clarkson's, so it gets confusing.
An 1850 census in Breckinridge, KY shows Menoah and Lucy living with 7 children including Mary, Judy, Mildred, Killis, Andrew, Sarah, and Martha.
By 1880, Lucy is a widow living in Bowling Green, Chariton Mo with son Thomas J, also Mildred, Andrew P, and Martha.
Thats all I have so far. I'm sure there's lots more. But signing off for tonite.
Seems to be a very good family with long lines back to VA.
Good Luck

I would like to help you but cannot connect family lines yet. The Thomas M. Clarkson of Clinton in Sampson county North Carolina U.S.A. was born in Gibraltar in 1812. His father was a schoolteacher from Great Britain..have record of father in U.S.A. but no records to lead back in to England. I have not found the given name of Roy yet. It makes sense that Thomas M. had brothers and/or sisters..but they have not turned up in my record searches. Good luck Jim Clarkson

Would be interested in anything about Thomas M Clarkson and further back. I do know that Thomas M and first son Thomas N served in the Sampson Rangers - Co. A, 30th NC Infantry, CSA. Both wounded at Sharpsburg; Thomas N buried there.
Joseph H is my great-great-grandfather. His only son, Thomas Alexander Clarkson, was born 7/11/1871 (five months after marriage - oops). Joseph H and (we believe) Thomas M are both buried in City Cemetery, Nashville TN. May have been interred by another relative with the surname Cornelius.
That's all I've been able to find out past what we both knew last fall. Hope to hear from you again.

Irealize that it has been some time since your posting. Still your info interests me.My family research connects with thename of Thos M Clarkson..born in Gibraltar..he brought up a family of sevean children in Clinton (Sampson cty) N.C. The 5th child,Joseph H. was born in 1851 He married Fannie A. Dixon in Wilmington on 2-1-1871. I have quite a bit more info on the Thomas M. Clarkson line. Your info appears to extend the line further if there is a connect. The Civil War blew the family apart as it did so many others. Await your reply Jim Clarkson jacl(a)sbcglobal.net

I can tell you a little about them but not much.
James Clarkson married Mary Ann Booth at Manchester Collegiate Church in 1832.
There's a birth registered in 1842 in Preston of a James Clarkson, mother's name Booth. Since Clarkson is a very common name in the Preston area this may be another James.
There's another possible child Esther bap. February 1834 at Blackley.

I'm looking for information about my ancesters Clarkson Sr., James (b. abt 1818 (England, UK)) and Clarkson (nee Booth), Mary Ann (b. abt 1814 (England, UK)). They had 3 children:
- Clarkson, Thomas (b. 23 May 1835 (Manchester, Lancashire, England, UK) d. 06 Jan 1897 (Fall River, Bristol County, MA, USA)). I know he was in the Civil War as he's buried in Oak Grove Cemetary, Fall River, in a Mass Civil War plot.
- Coates (nee Clarkson), Mary (b. 04 Oct 1838 (England, UK) d. 29 Jan 1905 (New Bedford, Bristol County, MA, USA))
- Clarkson Jr., James (b. 1843 (England, UK))
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
