Thanks so much. Anita. I am planning to work more on this next week when my son goes to visit his grandparents for the week and gives me a little peace! I'll let you know what I find out. Working backwards, Joshua's son Verne Clair (my husband's grandfather) was born between 1895-1898, so Joshua was probably born during the Civil War era or right before. Joshua married Fannie Baldwin in New Jersey, where Verne was born. He lived in E Orange NJ the rest of his life. The name combination of Rockhill and Clair seems like too much of a coincidence not to be some relation, though, yes? Thanks again. J

Going through my stashed notes found a family tree sent to my uncle and forwarded to my father back in 1973. The lady a Judith martin of Texas, lists the following Clairs in her tree . Joseph Clair m Sept 14 1853 to Susan Rockhill children Belind Edward Sallie and patience. also that a John Clair m Charlotte Rockhill and had a Daughter named Emma. She doesnt give any places for these however. Though she does have one branch moving to Ohio , georgia , va and Texas. Hope something I run across can help. Yours Anita P s This might be far afield and I havent checked the accuracy except on my main line ex Aaron, Joshua etc. so just take it as a possible clue.
