To Kim and Roger


Scan11946, originally uploaded by bucklesw1.

Written on the back:
"3 of Charles Clarke's daughters"

"Looks like Ernie at right. I think the Clarkes were with Russell Bros. Circus in the 1930's when this picture was taken."

That's Elizabeth Ernestine Clarke on the right, but she was the daughter of Ernest Clarke and Rebecca Elizabeth Hanneford. She was later, of course, Mrs. Parley Baer, and the mother of Kathleen "Kim" Baer, and Elizabeth Dale Baer.

Mrs. Hanneford, incidentally, was periodically known as "Becca" and "Lizzie". Clyde Beatty signed her copy of THE BIG CAGE, inscribing it "To my friend, Lizzie."
