Have you ever found any more information on your question? I came across the same names and am also wondering. Thanks.

Sent you an email on this, but thought I'd post it here too for anyone who might be reading on this subject later:
Since we last corresponded I have learned some new information and thought I'd share it with you. Hopefully it will answer your question about who the children pictured are. Or, in the alternative, maybe you can help me figure out if my assumptions are right or need tweaking! Here goes:
Cora Clack Family Picture Notes - 10/26/13
My father was Cora Clack's son, Bobby J. May. I just came across some of his notes from 1992 in which he names all his mother's siblings:
Charles (June 22, 1879 to June 25, 1907) (by Martha Brown Clack)
James Perry (Aug 2 ____. We believe this is the child Martha Brown delivered when she died in childbirth in 1880, and that he died soon after birth, as there are no records of him).
Minnie (b. Aug 24, 1885) (by Indiana McGee Clack)
Arthur Homer (b. Sept 22, 1887) (by Indiana McGee Clack)
Margaret Ethel (b. Apr 6, 1890 - d. Aug 24 _____) (by Indiana McGee Clack)
Nancy (b. Aug 15, 1892) (by Indiana McGee Clack)
Cora (b. Oct 15, 1894) (by Indiana McGee Clack)
Bill (b. Feb 4, 1897) (by Indiana McGee Clack)
Vera (Lessie?) (b. June 1, 1902, d. June 13, 1907) (by Indiana McGee Clack)
We had not seen any information about James Perry, Arthur Homer, Margaret Ethel, or Vera prior to my finding this note just this week in my father's things (Oct 2013). My mother recalls hearing Aunt Nancy Wyatt talk about baby Vera during a visit with her in the 1970's, so we know for certain she existed. And I highly doubt that my father would have listed any of the others had they not been accurate.
This picture was taken when William was a baby, so it would be from 1898. Therefore, we are wondering if the children pictured in this photo are: Cora (standing left of mother Anna McGee Clack), William (in mother's arms), Nancy (on father William R. Clack's lap), and Margaret (standing right of father). That would mean the two in the back were Minnie and Charles.
In the 1900 census it shows Minnie, Nancy, Cora, William, and Charlie were all living with William & Indiana Clack. There was also William's brother John C. Clack and his wife Nancy (newlyweds). It also shows that Indiana had 7 children, but only 4 were living. That would mean:
1) Margaret died before 1900, since she is no longer on the census. If she is the one in the picture standing on the right, then she died between 1898 and 1900.
2) Arthur Homer died between 1887 and 1898, since he is not pictured in 1898 or listed on the 1900 census.
3) Since Vera was not born at the time of the 1900 census, there would have been another unidentified child who was born and died before that census.

I can't lay my hands on the sources right now, but I read that James Clack, son of Rev James Clack of Ware Parish, was called Captain because he was a shipman like his brother William. It was not a military title.

Dear Susan,
I am new to ancestry.com, and in doing my own research on the Clack family I came across your question here. Cora Clack was my paternal grandmother. I have a picture of the Clack-McGee family which shows four smaller children in the front with the parents (who are sitting), and two older children standing behind. Perhaps we are looking at the same one. This is what I know about those pictured:
William Rice Clack (1854-1932) was married first to Martha J Brown (1862-1881), and they had at least one child I have identified: Charles B. Clack (1879-1907).
William Clack then married Indiana McGee (1864-1948), and they had four children, Minnie Bell (1885-1968), Nancy Malone (1892-1994), Cora Ellen (1894-1978), and William Cypert (1897-1990).
We believe the picture shows the four younger in the front, and Charles is the older one standing in the back. We have been unable to identify the older girl standing in the back with him, but are 98% sure it is not a child of either William Clack's or Indiana McGee's, as we can find no such evidence. It could have been a second child by his first wife, Martha. But she would have had to be no more than 2 years younger than Charles as Martha died when he was 2. It is possible she died in childbirth with a daughter (the girl pictured), but I can find no record of another child for William and Martha besides Charles.
It is difficult to get information about who was living with whom at that time as most of the 1890 census data was lost in a fire. This leaves many holes in our research unfortunately. Perhaps this girl was a niece or other family member who came to live with them?
If you hear anything on this mystery, or have any more questions, please feel free to contact me at anothercrazyredhead(a)gmail.com. My tree is well populated, but I am still in the beginning stages so please do not consider every stat to be 100% accurate. I believe the people are correct, just maybe not the info about them. If you would like access to view my tree I believe it is public. http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/59440790/family?fpid=30048773633
P.S. How does my grandmother, Cora Clack, and her family fit into your family tree?
Sincerely,
Ann May Printz

Alta is pictured in the 1920 Mowana, yearbook of Itasca High School in Itasca, Texas and is a freshman. I'm not kin but thought this might help someone researching the family.
