I've been going over the census listings on the Graves Co. Clapp family. WILLIAM ADAM CLAPP has been identified as a son of Adam Clapp and Malinda COPELAND. He appears in this household in 1850 as William A. Clapp, age 14 (ca 1836). In 1860, a William Clapp is still listed in the household of Adam and Malinda; however, this William Clapp is age 22 (ca 1838). Living next door is another William A. Clapp, age 24 (ca 1836), married to Mary, with a son Adam, age 2. The 1870 census only lists one William Clapp, age 33 (ca 1837), married to Mary, with children Adam, Susan and Mary. Has anyone identified the William Clapp (b. ca 1838) and decided which one is the son of Adam and Melinda? Thanks! Rebecca Hitzman
I am one from that line, but don't know how many are out there researching
the same line..
I have Richard? (Buford) Gore, born ca. 1806 ?, married ca 1829, to Matilda
OR Malinda <Clapp>.
From those two, Buford and Malinda, came my GrGrGrGrandparents, Alexander
Gore, and Rhody C. Mitchem.
Alexander b.ca 1831, married 1851-1853.
Rhody b., ca 1831 Graves Co.KY., died before 1880 , probably SE MO.
I keep going in 'ring aroun the rosie'. Most info is in TN, KY., and SE MO.
I just have way too little info to look somewhere else, and now I am house
bound.
Does anyone out there have more than I do?
Mamie

Hi Peg: You have certainly started the ball rolling on the Clapp list. I was
interested to note that most of your correspondents were from the New
England Clapp line, and some of their families went to Tennessee, Illinois
and Texas. Adam Clapp (born N.C. 1754) Revolutionary war veteran, went to
Tennessee then to Indiana and finally settled in Illinois. Our Clapp line is
from his 'first' family with Emma Marley. Some of the children in his
'second' family went to Texas to the Red River Colony. Need to look this up
and see who they were, and find their families in Texas. I believe that all
Clapps came from the original Clapp line in the Rhine Valley in Germany.
Some emigrated to England before the N.C. Clapps who first went to
Rotterdam, Holland and then to PA and in 1747 to N.C. Is anyone aware that
there is a Klapp castle in Germany.....Google it and find a web page with
pictures and history. Verrry interesting...I have photos taken in the
Rozzell Chapel Cemetery near
Mayfield, KY of many Clapp headstones; my husband suggested that I might
post them so that the images would be available to all who are of that line:
John Isaac Clapp who settled in Graves County, KY in 1823 married to Sarah
Loy. The Loy family is also in the Brick Church records. As soon as I get
back to my scanner I'll post those pictures. Kitty Hunt

My Mary Ann Clapp was born in 1810 in Mass and she married Lyman Simpson who was born 25 May 1797 also in Mass he died in 1882 in Indiana. Mary Ann died 10 Feb 1840 in Ill. after giving birth to Mary Ann Simpson on 6 Feb 1840. Mary Ann's parents were Isaac Clapp and Vesta Reynolds. Mary Ann Simpson was born in Brewster, Stephenson, Ill and died 4 Nov 1911 in Duschene, Utah, where she is buried. Mary Ann Simpson married William James Powell and I am searching the line of their son John Taylor Powell born 3 Jan 1883 in Castle Dale, Utah. He was married to Mary Ann Smith and they had 13 children.
