    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.]

Generation: 2

  1. 2.  Ida L. Clapp Descendancy chart to this point (1.John1) was born about 1868 in Missouri; died before 1895 in Oklahoma.

    Notes:

    She was not listed with William Pere McClanahan at the time of the 1900 census. He was shown as married to Betty L, for a period of 5 years, and Betty was shown as the mother of 3 living children, and three children were living in the home with Pere and Betty. However, the eldest, Osa P, a 10 year old girl, was likely born to Ida. The younger children, sons W. P. and Jay, were likely born to Betty during their five year marriage.

    Presumably she died before 1895, when Pere was said to have married Betty. However, Ken Harvey shows her date of death ca 1904, so perhaps they were separated prior to her death, or perhaps he was confusing her date of death with that of his second wife, Betty, who died sometime between 1904 and 1907, when Pere married for a third time.

    Ida married William Pere "Perry" McClanahan before 1890. William (son of Edmund French McClanahan and Margaret Emeline Richardson) was born on 14 Mar 1868 in Missouri; died in Oct 1939 in Tecumseh, Pottawatomie County, Oklahoma. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
