WHAT HAS MAY GIBBS IN COMMON WITH MARGARET CLARK?
Margaret Clark was truly a great Australian Illustrator. Her contemporaries were the likes of Ida Outhwaite Rentoul and May Gibbs. The programme of first exhibition in 1924 was a who's who of the Sydney Art Scene. The 1926 exhibition was a sell out success and we are frequently contacted by owners of some really great examples of the genius of Margaret Clark.
Federation Fairies was formed to preserve as many of the illustrations as possible for generations to come.
Our Facebook Page Federation Fairies - Margaret Clark has been visited by many people who appreciate the bygone era of innocence and beauty.
You may like to see 30 examples which are now available as Limited Edition Prints www.federationfairies.com.au/
ENJOY and SHARE
Kindest Regards

Looking for the Family?
We are looking for any relatives of Kate Nicholson who went to Canada with her family possibly prior to 1900. Kate was a Clark and a relative of Margaret Clark.
Also any relatives of Lucy Wigginton or George Edwin Rowell who left Peterborough in 1882 to come to Australia.
I believe that Lucy Wigginton seated in the middle surrounded by her 7 daughters was a Tibbet prior to marriage and that her father may have been a tea merchant in Peterborough.
