May Clark - Wikipedia I am certain that the dates provided for May's birth 9th August 1889 and death 31st May 1984 are incorrect. I would refer you to the website 'May Clark - Woman Film Pioneers Project' which has the correct dates and further information about her film career and life as a cinematographer. If you look at the marriage certificate for Mabel Louise Clark dated 14th March 1907 and solemnized at St. Mary's Church in the parish of Walton-on-Thames in the county of Surrey, you will see that her age is shown as 21, which implies her birth is no later than 1886. May was born in Sunbury-on-Thames, Middlesex and not Kent as shown on the Wikipedia page. The 1891 census return for Walton-on-Thames, Surrey shows at schedule 154, William Clark, head of family, age 30, with his wife Louisa, 26, daughter Mabel (May) aged 5 and son Reginald aged 2. After her time at Hepworth studios, circa 1908, when she started a family, she went into the cinematography business with her husband Norman and brother Reginald. England & Wales birth records for Mabel Louise Clark shows her born 1885, 3rd quarter, mother's maiden name Chapman, registration district Staines, county Middlesex, country England, volume 3A, page 2.
