They record him as the son of F.A. and E.A. Clarke of Upwood, Huntingdonshire. Soldiers Died in the Great War records that his forenames were Alfred Hubert, and that he was living in Peterborough when he enlisted in Leicester. The Army Registers of Soldiers Effects record that Alfred Hubert Clarke's mother Eliza was his legatee).
