On board the ''David Scott'', East Indiaman, off the Cape of Good Hope, Mrs Clerk, wife to Lieut. Col. Clark, of the Madras establishment. ... '''Her remains were preserved in spirits''' until the 31st December following, when they were interred at St. Helena with all suitable attention, and followed to the grave by all the passengers of the fleet, and the greater part of the inhabitants of that island." The date of death of May 1805 is inaccurate, as Mrs Lucy Clarke died 20 December 1804. <ref> findmypast has a burial record for “Mrs Lucy Clark, Passenger, Ship Dav. Scott” for burial on 1 January 1805. Also see Jackson, Helen.
