Eureka!! 
 
The Titanic Commutator, v. 16, #1, May-July 1992, Part two of "The Clark Family of Los Angeles" by Don Lynch, page 18, reads: 
 
"....there is a street in Redondo Beach named for the Clark family"   
That would be Clark Lane, which is just a few blocks long. 
 
"The Los Alamitos Sugar Factory closed its doors in 1926 when the farmland which produced the beets became more valuable to developers. The Clark family's Montana Land Company was sold during the late 1940's, with the Long Beach property becoming what is now the city of Lakewood. Once again one of the streets is named for the Clarks."   
 
That would be my very own Clark Avenue, which starts at Pacific Coast Hiway (Hwy 1), and runs north through Long Beach (just a few blocks from where Titanic survivor Anna Turja Lundi lived), through Lakewood (just a few blocks from where yours truly grew up), through Bellflower, and finally ends up in Downey. 
 
Sorry to bore the rest of you, but that made my day.  People like Brian Ticehurst that live in Southampton, where every street seems to have a Titanic memorial of some sort will think this is funny, but we don't have that many connections out here.
