Adam's father was William Clarkson and his mother was Sarah Collings. His paternal grandparents were Richard Clarkson and Mary Rainford; his maternal grandparents were William Collings and Maria Mather. He had three brothers and three sisters, named Peter, Richard, Thomas, Maria, Sarah and Mary. He was the youngest of the seven children. He died at the age of 28 in September 1898 in Blackburn.³

Death Notes
- Jane was a widow in 1901, but Alice was born in 1898. Therefore Adam must have died between 1891 and 1901.
  
  No death record can be found (using Ancestry or FreeBMD) for Adam, but this for Albert seems a good match. Perhaps a transcription error when death reported.
