Poked around & foud the following. You may have to approach Sarah sideways through
her children. Look for trees on line for hints. Your family looked to be more MA based
rather than RI.
You can access Ancestry at some local libraries or Family History Centers or you could do
a free trial if you have enough things you want to look-up.

Births Mar 1843 Qtr - CLARKE Ann Altrincham V19 pg.21
Births Mar 1845 - Clark Ann Altrincham V19 pg. 1
Sarah may not have known her own birthday. The only Sarah Clark registered in Altrincham
Registration District who would fit is this one:
Births Mar 1848Qtr - CLARKE Sarah Altrincham V19 pg. 8
Are you positive of Hannah's maiden? The only marriage that fits, assuming they
married in Denham, is this one:
Marriages Sep 1842 - CLARKE John / TIMPERLEY Hannah Altrincham V19 pg. 6

The family isn't appearing on the 1861 census so they may have arrived before the year
Sarah reported on the US census.

Bridgeport, District 17, Fairfield, Conneticut - Barnum & Bailey's Circus
Mis-indexed as Lewis - poor penmanship & poor image - but if you compare the initial
letter with other names that start with "H", this is Hume not Lewis. Father b.
Scotland & mother b. England cinches it - this is consistant with the rest of the
family's census entries elsewhere.

He should have been shown as married to Carrie on 1910 but instead I found him working for
the circus in Bridgeport, CT unless there were 2 John"s both with fathers b. Scotland
& mothers b. England and births of approx. the same year.
