Hi Marilyn,
You probably got your marriage for Amanda from a second source. She
actually married Andrew "B" Claypool. He was a cousin to my grandfather.
He always went by the name "Birt". Birt and Amanda lived here in
Vermilion
Co, IL, which is why you probably lost them. Amanda died young and is
buried 2 miles south of Bismarck, Illinois. I am including a Family
Group
Sheet below from my genealogy program and hope it helps. Descendants
of Birt Claypool hold a reunion the second Sunday in June.

I, too, am searching for an Amanda Claypool. She was Amanda Jane Kunkel and
she married Andrew J. Claypool of Fountain Co. Indiana about 1886. Last
known to be in that area in 1889. Can anyone help me find them?

Hello Ralph,
I too am a CLAYPOOL researcher and live in Plano, Tx. Have
you discovered the CLAYPOOL books by BRACKEN in the Dallas
library. In the 70s all of the CLAYPOOLS sent info on their lines to
her and the books are wonderful. The families are divided into
areas of the country and KY. Is a large one. Mine came from
Warren Co. Ky. to northwest Ark. I will look in my research and try
to find Amanda.
Do you perhaps know Margeret Willoughby who lives in
Arlington? She aided in compiling the books. I have tried to reach
her but the number is unlisted. Her ggfather and mine were
brothers.
It is good to connect to a researcher and cousin here in Dallas.
If you want to talk my # is 972-596k-8805
will talk soon.... Riley (female)

David, you might try Sam Claypoole, who seems to be the guru of

I am interested in learning more about Fay, Emma and Agnes Claypool, dtrs of Newton Claypool and Jeannette Hurlbert Claypool of Indianapolis. I presume they were born in the 1870s or 1880s as their parents were married in 1876.
We understand Mr. Claypool married a second time, to Harriett Higgins of Pasadena, CA.
We don't know if they married, or to whom, and have no birth dates.

I have this on who I believe may be your "gent"
Newton Claypool "was born in Connersville, Indiana 7/24/1856; died
11/3/1923. He attended Earlham College, Richmond, Indiana; Miami
University, Oxford, Ohio; and Amherst College in Massachusetts.
Travelled extensively in Western Europe. Married (1) 8/20/1876,
Jeanette H. Hurlburt, dau. of Lewis G. & Emma L. Hurlburt of Aurora,
Indiana; (2) Harriett Higgins, who lived in Pasadena, California.
His father was:
Edward Fay Claypool - born 3/17/1832; died 2/24/1911. Married 8/20/1844
Catherine Morrow, born 8/22/1838. He took $400,000 worth of stock in
the Claypool Hotel at Indianapolis, Ind., built in 1893. Solomon
Claypool, his cousin, wrote the lease for Edward F. to the Indiana Hotel
Co. In 1939, the Claypool control of the CLAYPOOL HOTEL passed as to
the controlling interest to Catholic Boys School, Ogdenburg, N.Y. He
was a business man of large wealth; was a banker in Connersville, Ind.
and later lived in Indianapolis, Ind.
I either have a picture of the Claypool Hotel or I have seen a picture
of it. I will check my Claypool/e notebooks on this and see if I still
have the picture or not.
Trust this might help somewhat. It was taken from Evelyn Claypoole
Bracken's book Volume II Revised of which I have a copy.
