Gordon, I am not in the McClure family but have many with connections with my Perkinson and Barnes families.. On Trimble Co. school census (which is not always correct,) Charles Tolbert and Addie had a daughter born 28 Mar 1903 who married Hurley Lester Brown 31 Dec 1922 in Trimble Co. They also had another daughter, Alma Lou born last of Dec 1904 and died 34 Feb 1905 age 2 months. I don't have a death date for Bessie Brown. I am sorry I have Charles Taylor instead of Charles Tolbert in the obituaries and Cemetery Book. I am hot sure if the mistake was in his obituary or not.

Although I was born in Madison, Indiana I still have a lot of relatives in Trimble County. In fact, from my research the McClure's have been in the county since the 1840s when William McClure brought his bride, Jane Randall to the area. > > My question: > > My grandfather, Charles Tolbert McClure, was married three times. His first wife, Addie Nichols, of Jefferson County Indiana, left my grandfather with a daughter after her death. We always called this daughter "Aunt Bessie" who married Hurley Brown and moved to Wabash, Indiana where they are both now deceased. I have not been able to fine the birth of anyone under the name of Bessie McClure. Do any of you list members have any information on this marriage and birth? Thanks for your help. > > Gordon L.
