John C. Clapp

Notes:

Naomi Emmich posted the following about this family:

Wakonda dist, Carrolton Carroll Co MO 1880 census for spouse and children (brother Chesterfield was in Rea twp of Carroll Co; Mary's HOOVER parents were one county east in Saline) Birth of a dau there says they arrived MO in 1870 This is probably the John Clapp who filed for land near George Clapp in Seward Co NE in 1868, but cancelled in 1869.

Coles Co IL Land Records index from Betty Turner shows: John Clapp to John Shields 1 Oct 1869 Book 25, p 483 where did this land come from???

John?s heirs Ida and Dora named in sale of Sarah?s widows dower 1893

Collet/Browns in 1860 census Hurricane twp, Clapps there 1880- why?

look also in parent county for early records, Collets and Browns

1880 John Clapp, son of George and Eliza White lived there with wife Mary and family. did they stay long enough that they left marriage records or other such??? yes, his heirs Ida and Dora named in sale of Sarah?s widows dower 1893 [except records provided by V. J. Mitchell show Ida had already died, and younger sibling of Dora were not named... the families seem to have lost touch by the time John died.]
