BROCK/GAYLORD Marriage (and Emigration?)
Posted by: Mel Jackson (ID *****4329) Date: April 25, 2005 at 04:40:51

Trying to find further information on my ancestress - Clara Gaylord (nee Brock)

Here's what I have:
Clara Brock born 06 January 1870 in Nempnett Thrubwell, Somerset to Thomas Brock and Hannah (nee Vowles -nb. Incorrectly transcribed on LDS as Dowels!).
Married Willis Wilbur Gaylord 24 October 1893 Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.
Willis Wilbur Gaylord born 02 March 1869 Stow, Summit, Ohio (Died 05 April 1912 Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.)


I have only just found this and am keen to find out more about Clara & Willis - did they have family - when did she emigrate?


Clara is the youngest daughter of Thomas Brock by his first wife, Hannah. She had a half-sister, Kate born to Thomas and his second wife (also a Clara) who is my great-grandmother.

Clara had a sister, Elizabeth, who married George Marks from Nempnett. Two of Elizabeths sons - Gilbert and Joseph emigrated to Illinois. Sadly Elizabeth and her younger daughter perished sailing back from visiting the boys in 1915 - they were on the Lusitania.

Gilbert and Joseph have living descendants - some of whom I'm in touch with, but I'm seeking information specifically on Clara and her family. Please do not respond with information on Thomas Brock as I have this already.

Many thanks!
