Agnes Clara was born to Frederick and Harriet Passmore, nee Hooper, in January 1863 in Axbridge, Somerset. She was baptised on the 4th January 1863 at Christ Church, 16 Montpelier, Weston-super-Mare. Sadly she lost her older brother, Frederick, aged 3, in October of the same year. In 1866, she gained another brother, Edward, and in 1867 she gained another sister, Ellen Louisa. The 1871 census shows Clara living at 4 James Buildings' in Weston-super-Mare with her family. In 1881, Clara was working as a Housemaid and living at Kings Home in Bristol Road, Weston-super-Mare.
