    I have this picture in my family’s (M L Clark) pictures.

    Any thoughts on the date? I am interested in M.L.Clark Circus information. I believe my great grandmother and great grandfather worked with them in Texas in the early 1900’s.

    I have interest in the history of these performers. A woman billed as Suzette (Suzenette) who I believe to be my great grandmother (Cannon ball juggler / weightlifter and slack rope walker) had an act with a Clark. Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Our relatives were tight rope walkers in the early 1900s . He was billed as George Frasier and his wife Billy was a sharp shooter. Any info about them would be welcome.
    Thanks,

    Dear Marlene,

    I am looking for information on a performer married to one of the Clark Brothers, Lum, in 1906.

    Please contact me if you have any information.

    I am looking for information on Daredevil Devlin, a one-legged bicyclist who had an act called “the Ride for Life” He was in the Clark circus, likely between 1902 and 1911. Any information out there?
