I've "rescued" an old photograph of Dell WILSON which was taken at the Hope & Bros. Studio in Shawneetown, MO. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's or 1890's with Dell likely in her teens or 20's at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Dell and her family: Flora Delle WILSON was b. 31 Jul 1870 in Oak Ridge or Cape Girardeau, MO to parents Charles C. WILSON (1830-1886) and Adaline or Adeline BEAL (1833-1904). Dell was one of 9 children born to this couple including, Narcena Caroline; Giles A.; John S.; William Green; Sarah Jane WILSON COBB (1861-1946); Mary Elizabeth "Molly" WILSON DRUM (1865-1925); Alexander "Alex"; Flora Delle; and Thomas "Tom" WILSON (1872-1944). Dell married Andrew "Andy" Hines CLIPPARD (1868-1940) on 17 Feb 1890 and together they had 7 children including, Bert; Louisianna "Lucie" or "Lucy" Mae Lee; Carlyn or Carlen; Myron or Marion or Mayron Hines; Hazell Delle; Jane; and Glen CLIPPARD, all born between 1890 and 1912. Dell died 26 Apr 1935 in Cape Girardeau, MO and is buried in the Oak Ridge Cemetery in Oak Ridge. Census records reveal the following details: 1870 census of Apple Creek, MO: Charles C.
