Clara Mary Beatrice ROWE (née MOORE BURKE) [1886-1912]

Submitted by jill on

Clara Rowe née Moore Burke was the elder sister of Annie Louisa Olson. The two sisters were brought up and educated at the Canossian Convent in Hong Kong. Clara married Charles Hawkeswell Rowe, a rubber planter, in Singapore in 1912. She died of puerperal fever the same year leaving no children. Family photos show Charles Rowe with his second wife and their son. I have been unable to discover where he was buried.
