McClellan. He raised his family in or near Ft. Scott, KS and died some time in the 1930's-early 1940's. He married Stella May Forster who was born in 1878 and died in 1914 during childbirth. She is buried in Hepler, KS. Clayton and May had two children: Harold Richard and Gladys Lorraine. Harold (my father)was born in 1906 and died in 1974 in Wilmington DE. I've heard stories that Clayton was murdered while being robbed in Ft. Scott, KS. Can't get the story straight though. If you have any info to share on Clayton and his brothers I would be forever grateful. I've been trying to find out about him for over 12 years and finally think I've found him.
