Lilian De Beaurepaire (15 September 1892 – 24 November 1979),[1] also known by her married name Lilian Clarke, was an Australian swimmer and diver. She competed at the 1920 Summer Olympics in the 100-metre and 400-mete freestyle and plain high diving, but failed to reach the finals. Her brother Frank Beaurepaire was an Olympic swimmer.[2]
She was the daughter of Francis Edmund de Beaurepaire, sailor, tram-conductor, trader, and (later) hotel proprietor, and his wife Mary Edith, née Inman.[3] In 1936, she married Herbert Clarke.[4]
The Lillian Beaurepaire Memorial Swimming Pool on the Lorne foreshore was opened by Melbourne City Councillor Ian Beaurepaire CMG in December 1967. For many years she was Lorne's only lifesaver.[5]
She died on 24 November 1979 at Chesterfield Private Hospital, Geelong.[6]
