Not my family but found the following bios in a book in my possession.
Richard Clement, of Wantage, Berkshire, England, was married 1800 to Miss Anna Tompkins, who was born in 1781 in Abingdon, England. To them were born ten children, seven of whom accompanied their parents, in 1834, to America, two sons remaining in England, and one son, William having preceded them to this country. They came first to Royalton, remaining there only a few weeks, then settled in the southeastern part of Strongsville, where they spent the remainder of their days, Mr. Clement dying in March, 1857, aged 80 years, Mrs. Clement following him in 1873. The names of th eight children were Joseph Robert, Ann (Mrs. Thomas Redrup), Richard, Jr., William, Mary (Mrs. A. Farrer), James, and Edward.
William Clement, who was born April 17, 1811, at Wantage, England, came to Royalton, Ohio, when he was 21 years of age, and two years later settled in Strongsville, about one mile west of Bennett's Corners, on a farm purchased of Andrew Conant. He married, in May, 1839, Miss Fannie Saunders, who died in June, 1848, leaving two little girls. May, 1849, Mr. Clement married Miss Harriet Phillips. Her death occurred in 1887, after which one of his children lived with him and cared for him until his death, which took place in September, 1899. Mr. Clement was a public-spirited man, always taking a great interest in the educational affairs of the town. He was a liberal supporter of the church, being a member of the North Royalton Baptist Church, although for some years before his death he attended to the M. E. church, at Bennett's Corners, and was a worker in the temperance cause. His children were Mrs. Fannie Taylor, who died in Strongsville, Dec. 17, 1902; Mrs. Carrie McNutt, of !
Crab Orchards, Nebraska; Miss Grace Clement, of Strongsville; Alfred Clement, of Medina; J. E. Clement and Mrs. Ella Porter, of Strongsville; and Mrs. Annie Clark and Mrs. Amy Morton, of Brunswick, O.
Richard Clement, Jr., and wife had twelve children. The eldest son, George, was killed in the War of the Rebellion. Three children died while small, and three, Henry, Mary and Emily, died after reaching maturity. Five sons are living -- E. M., of Beebetown; Robert, of Royalton; Albert, of Strongsville; John, of Brunswick; and Arthur, of Beebetown. Mrs. Clement's death occurred in February, 1888, and Mr. Clement died two years later.
Edward Clement, the sixth son of Richard and Ann Clement, was born in 1818, and in 1842 married Miss Sophia Redrup, of North Royalton. They occupied the old homestead until the death of the parents, whent hey moved to the Center, where they now reside. Of their seven children, Chas. R. is living in Brunswick; Zebina A. is a resident of Strongsville, and one of the trustees of the township; Edwin A. settled in Brunswick, but died in April, 1900, while serving as State Representative; Mary married Mr. J. Andrew, of Hinckley; Wm. H. is in Brunswick; Thos. R. is a farmer, also a member of the firm of Clement & Son; and Sophia A. married Mr. John Randall and resides in Hinckley.
Hon. Edwin A. Clement, son of Edward and Sophia Clement, was born in Strongsville, July 13, 1848. After attending Oberlin College, he commenced teaching, which profession he followed for many years. In 1895, he was appointed one of the Board of Examiners for Medina County; this position he resigned to accept that of Representative to the Seventy-fourth General Assembly, which convened in 1900. In 1873, he married Miss Clara Bennett, only child of George W. Bennett, of Brunswick. He died in Columbus, Ohio, April 9, 1900, while serving as Representative.

I have decided to participate in a Y chromosome DNA testing program through
Family Tree DNA to confirm (or not) some questions about my lineage in
Quebec. I would like to hear from any other male descendents of the men
shown below who may have an interest in also participating, with the hope
that several such people would also join in the program. That would give us
a base for comparison. Participation of any male descendents of any of the
following would be helpful:
Gabriel Clement dit LaRiviere, b. December 29, 1780, Pointe Claire,
Montreal
Joseph Clement dit LaRiviere, b. March 27, 1750, Pointe Claire, Montreal
Jean Baptiste Clement dit LaRiviere, b. May 19, 1722, Pointe Claire,
Montreal
Pierre Clement dit LaRiviere, b. around 1665, Tarascon, France
Thanks,
Dave Clement
Seeking any info on:
Felix Clement. B. May 11, 1826, Pointe Claire, Montreal, Quebec
Prosper Clement, b. Oct 17, 1831, Pointe Claire, Montreal, Quebec
Parents of both are Gabriel Clement, b Dec 29, 1790 and Susanne Pilon, b.
Aug 29, 1790.
I do not have any additional info on these two people beyond their birth as
recorded in parish records and included in FHL Film 1570439, Daquette,
Gerald. Would like to learn about marriages, children and connect with any
descendants.
Thanks,
Dave Clement
