MY FATHER-IN-LAWS MOTHER WAS NAMED ALTA CLEVENGER. HIS NAME WAS CARL BUTERBAUGH FROM CHERRY TREE PENNSLYVANIA.
JUST WONDERING IF THIS RINGS A BELL.
THANK YOU
Gillia A. Clevenger was born in Wayne County, IL in 1871, as the daughter of
Daniel H. Clevenger.
There is some confusion about his marriages. Either he married two women who
were related or his wife had a very long name. In his Military pension papers,
it states that he and Winnie Sophia Galaspey had never been married before
their marriage.
However, in the 1880 census, Daniel H. Clevenger has wife - Narcissus I, age
48 born in TN. Some of the Daniel H Clevenger's children are very clear that
their mother was born in Kentucky, while others state she was born in Tenn.
Winnie clearly stated that she was born in KY, and Narcissus was born in Tenn.
1880 Wayne County, IL Census
Clevenger, Daniel H. 58 VA VA VA
Narcissus I. 48 TN NC NC
George IL VA TN Son
Daniel 16 IL VA TN Son
Martha M. 14 IL VA TN Dau.
Mary A. 12 IL VA TN Dau.
Gilla 8 IL VA TN Dau.
Military papers state Daniel H. Clevenger died on August 28, 1893, his
tombstone says August 28 1892. However, in the Wayne County Press, the following
articles settle the argument.
August 31, 1893
Uncle Dan Clevenger, of Pleasant Oak, is not expected to live long. La
Grippe or Consumption are the cause.
September 7, 1893
Uncle Dan Clevenger died last week of consumption.
September 28, 1893
Sale of Dan Clevenger's possessions was on September 31, 1893.
After Daniel's death, Winnie and Gilla, the youngest, and James P. Mathews,
with children Ottis, Frank, Jennie, and Elkanah "LK" moved to Arkansas. This
would have been around the turn of the century (after 1894).

My GG Grandmother was Maud Clevenger, her sister was Mary. Their father was John Clevenger but I don't even have his date of birth or location. We *think* his wife was Ann or Anna. If you want more info about Maude or the downline, or if you can give me more info, please e-mail me at TheGoddessZaylla(a)msn.com with a subject line of Clevenger. Thanks!

From what I can gather, there is no other generation between Elias and Alex. I have census reports that support this.

You can send it email direct to
