Hello - I am Patricia A. McClure (Mrs. Hershel Earl) but usually go by the name Pat.I have a son and two daughters and proudly claim the three people they have chosen to add to the family.Consequently we now have 7 'little people' who each have their own branch.They are another reason for my research.
From an Obit for Ransom McClure dated Dec. 19, 1946, it lists 5 sisters, Rose, Minnit, Adelia, Martha and Bessie.The 1880 Census lists Sherod William McClure and Lucretia Clay Humphrey as parents and Ransom as 8 yrs. of age with one brother (at that time).I welcome any comments that may help me tie this up.he area is Arkansas and Kansas.
The predominate family surnames I have discovered with my research performed thus far are MC CLURE - KY,TN,KA & AK, SQUIBB - TN,MO & WA, GRAVES - WA & Nelson, England, BROOKS - MN, SHIELDS - EUBANKS, HUBBLE, KELSO, HUMPHREY - KY, EVANS - TN & MC QUIRE - MT (which is quite complete but for interesting tidbits).
I belong to the Anchorage Genealogical Society and have learned so very much from those who started their root-search long before I did.
