Sorry, but this is not conclusive for the 1843 death for Mary but I strongly suspect this is not your Mary.
I've checked the burial transcripts for Ulverston St Mary, Holy Trinity and Dalton St Mary - and there is no Mary Clark/Clarke buried in any of them in 1843. The municipal cemetery did not open until 1878.
I also had a look at the Walney burials and the Coulton burials (surrounding parishes) and nothing. Barrow's municipal cemetry did not open until 1873, and any other chapels in the area were under the Dalton parish records.
If you look on freebmd you will see just how spread-out the Ulverston reg district was in the early days so the death could have taken place in any number of parishes, but she wasn't buried in or around Ulverston!
Incidently, while I was looking I checked for her father prior to 1851 - and no results on him - so maybe he died out of area or at sea. However, not sure if you have this but there is a Jane Clark buried 30/1/1859 age 53, of Quay Street Ulverston (which is in the same area as they were in 1851) so it looks like her - bmd is spelt Clarke.
Added: Quay Street was where unmarried daughter Margaret was living in 1861/71 with various children and then the "lodger" John Fawcett in 1871. They'd moved up the road to Sunderland Terrace by 1881 so didn't move around much! Didn't exactly need a removal wagon! Although I realise you probably already have this from your OP ;-)

Dear Flip
Thank you so much for doing the search....I didn't have Jane's death, so that's another piece of the puzzle.
The family did not move far from the Quay Street area but have been a beggar to find........ Margaret took 10yrs off her age on the 1881 census and had a daughter with the "lodger" by then!! Some of them also changed their christian names!!!
I'm so pleased that both you and Maureen agree Agnes has been found, I have been searching for ages, why I never thought of checking where I did before, goodness only knows....
What a coincidence Mathew marrying two Agnes Clarks, I guess Mary may always remain a mystery but who knows.
Once again, Thank you for all time and effort..

You're welcome Misty :-)
Yes I noticed the age discrepancy, but then wouldn't you if you had a toy-boy in tow :-D
I can't find anything more on Mary, but Clark/e is a common name so maybe she married out of area before the 1851 census - her sister Agnes moved away so maybe she did too.
My previous post did not give Jane's burial place, but it was at St Mary's, Ulverston.
