Clarey; Eng;Usa;Can.

Looking for anyone who may have information on my grandfather and Great Grandmothers family.
Info known: Frances Clarey formerly Oldham born 1867 England.
Married unknown Clarey. Frances a widow in 1899.
Children: Mary 1893, Annie/Anne 1896, David 1899, John Willie 1902.
David Clarey was my grandfather, born July 20, 1899 (Parish records) in Rotherham England. Birth certificate says Aug 3, 1899.
Frances Clarey and her 4 siblings were in the Rotherham Workhouse from 1906-07. Frances dissapeared from the workhouse in 1907.
Mary and David left the workhouse in 1907, John Willie left in 1908 and Annie/Anne left in 1911.
David Clarey entered Barnardo's in 1914 and emigrated to Canada, destination Toronto, Ontario.
David Clarey died April 27, 1990 in Lindsay, Ont.

We have no knowledge of where David's 3 siblings went after leaving the workhouse. We are looking for information on Clarey families in Usa and Canada as well as England that may be descendents of the siblings.
Any Clarey information would be appreciated.
Thanks Debbie
