Abstract

Letters written by William Clark to his daughter Jane, 1823 -1838.
Some letters addressed to "Dearest Jenny" - her arrival at the Cape, his intention to retire to VDL, possibility of passage on the "Adrian" (1823-4); family matters, Bothwell, dined with Reids, Dr. Sharland, "ration" sugar and tea, departure of Arthurs (1836); Hythe and Weston children, (1838). Jane Clark (1795-1873) was the elder daughter of William Clark and brother of John Clark. She had joined her father at Cape Town, South Africa, where he was serving with the army and came with him and her young brother John to Tasmania in the "Adrian", the same ship on which the new Lieut-Governor Colonel Arthur and his family travelled. The Arthur family were army friends of the Clark family and Jane became governess to the Arthur children. She did not marry and lived most of her life at Mauriceton, Green Ponds.
