Biography:

1. Clarke Davie was employed as a Labourer in the Refining House earning 1/6d per day (Supply 5/216 dated the 31st July 1792 ). 2. From July to September of that year he was refining Saltpetre (also Supply 5/216) as well as in February to September 1793, when it would appear that he left the employment of the Royal Powder Mills, and was replaced by John Godwin (Supply 5/216). 3. Robert Coleman, Clerk of the Cheque, recorded that on the 29th July 1793, "C Davie" and others were chequered [fined] one day's pay for "having gone across the Hoppit contrary to repeated orders." (Winters, p. 39) 4. Robert Coleman reported that Davie, together with Ben Wall Junior and William Dunn, Labourers, were discharged on the 4th November 1793, being suspected of stealing iron from a farmer's gate (Winters, p. 40).
