Surnames: Clemsen/Corson/ Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AFB.2ACI/3558.1.1 Message Board Post: Kathy Thank you for the information from the 1864 directory. I have received some info on Richard Clemsen's ancestors, through another list, from a "4th cousin." I know his parents were William Clemsen and Elizabeth Auld. I have also learned that Francis Corson's parents were Henry Corson and Wilhelmina (?). I have not had any response from any direct descendants of Richard and Francis Clemsen and am still hopeful that of their 10 children there is someone other than I researching the family.
