[PiwigoPress id=993 lnktype='albumpicture' opntype='_self' size='me' url='https://familyhistoryjournal.com/gallery'] Clara Williamson (née Clara Ashforth 1895-1932) Clara Williamson (née Clara ASHFORTH 1895-1932) was my great great aunt, the youngest child of William Henry ASHFORTH 1851-1899 and Ellen ASHFORTH (née Ellen TOMLINSON 1855-1943). On the reverse of this photograph written in ink is this citation: "With love from Clara to William" William Henry ASHFORTH 1851-1899, Clara's father, died about 4 years after her birth, so this is most likely a reference to either her brother (my great grandfather) William Henry ASHFORTH 1873-1926 or her nephew (my great uncle) William Henry ASHFORTH 1896-1916.

Published: August 4, 2007    Last modified: February 15, 2017

I have found a marriage record for Clara ASHFORTH 1895-1932 and Henry James WILLIAMSON 1894-1965. The marriage took place at Sheffield, Yorkshire, England in the June quarter of 1919. I have also found a likely date of birth for a Henry James WILLIAMSON 1894-1965 in the June quarter of 1892.
