John Frederick Preston Clarke's career

Steve Turner writes in his book "The band that played on" that Clarke had never played on ships before Titanic. I found out that this is not true. Clarke had been at sea at least twice. (All crew lists are not available unfortunately, so I can't say how many times exactly he had been at sea.) He had played at least on Carmania and Caronia before Titanic.

In the second last line (number 66): J.F.P.Clarke, 26, Manchester, 22 Tunstall street, Caronia, bandman (via Ancestry.com)
