The surname Clark is inconveniently common, but there seems to be only one Mary who fits well as my ancestor. It is clear that at the time their were 2 Thomas and Mary Clark(e)s having children on Thanet. They appear to separate neatly, though, into one where the baptisms were at St. John's, and another where after 2 children baptised at St. Laurence's the others were baptised at St. Peter's. Mary is part of this latter family. The marriage of one Thomas and Mary was too late for them to be the parents of the St. John's family, but nearly 6 months before the first child of the other family was born, a very likely gap.
I am therefore confident that (provided I haven't missed a Mary and the one baptised in 1782 is my ancestor) then so are this Thomas and Mary.
