Hope some of this is "new" information for you. Please remember to help others along the way. Joyce Taylor Collins La Palma, CA I am enquiring about the 10th child, Thomas B. McClellan (he seems to have dropped the "d" at the end). Thomas was born 03 Nov 1858 in Knox County; he went west to Oregon with the rest of the family in the early 1880s, settling in Umatilla County, Oregon. By the time of his parents' deaths in 1899, he was back in Knox County, Kentucky, (his location is listed in Robinson's probate records). He died on 13 Apr 1938 in Mulenberg County, Kentucky. I am looking for information on his spouse and children. Thanks for your help Susan Masse <

I just spent a week in Umatilla County (Oregon) this spring, and couldn't find too much on Thomas. Now that I have a probable spouse's name and another name fro Thomas, I can go back to the notes I took and see what I have. (I wrote down almost everything about the McClellans). Susan Masse
