He founded Francis Clark and Son, importers with his son son J. Howard Clark as accountant soon after migrating to Adelaide with his family in 1850, then brought in A. Sidney Clark as manager〔(Personal ) ''The Advertiser'' 18 February 1908 p.6 accessed 28 May 2011〕 becoming Francis Clark and Sons, hardware importers and shipping agents of Blyth Street. With the death of the founder in 1853, A. Sidney Clark became sole owner, shifting the company's focus towards real estate, insurance and finance, and in 1871, with the firm of Clark and Crompton (see Henry Clark below), moved to offices in Grenfell Street〔(Removal ) ''South Australian Register'' Monday 29 May 1871 p.1 accessed 15 June 2011〕 close to King William Street. It narrowly survived destruction when the adjacent photographic studio of Townsend Duryea was destroyed by fire on 18 April 1875. They branched out into stationary engines and other machinery around 1875, with day-to-day operations managed by Joseph Horwood in premises on Gresham Street and North Terrace,〔(Business notices ) ''South Australian Register'' 25 October 1876 Supplement p.4 accessed 15 June 2011〕 moving to Blyth Street in 1878. The company was declared insolvent in 1884 but was permitted by its creditors to continue trading. In 1886, with the departure of M Symonds Clark, it became Francis H. Clark & Co. The company ceased trading in 1893. ==The people==
