I'm a little confused about who the spouse for Clara was. It's late where I
am right now, so the answer may be right in front of me and I can't see it.
You say you're looking for a marriage to Thomas Hill, but from what I can
tell, he is the father of Joseph Hill. Joseph was born in 1858 which is a
few years before Clara was born, so to me it looks like Joseph was the one
who was married to Clara and not Thomas.

Subject: [INVANDER] Marriages 1880- - 1900 Vanderburgh Co. IN
I'm looking for marriages of my grandmother and her sisters in
Indiana.
In the1880 census, they were in Pigeon, Vanderburgh, Indiana. My
grandmother, Clara Hobbs, eventually moved to St. Louis, MO, but I have
not been able to locate a marriage for her to Thomas Hill in c 1886 in
MO. My grandfather was a ship mate, so traveled up and down the river.
Can someone tell me where or I can look these marriages up, or is
there a "look up" person on this list that is willing to do this
service. With the exception of my grandmother Clara, I haven't been
able to locate them after 1880. Clara had a lot of sisters as follows:
Parents: James HOBBS b: 1834 AR d: Bef. 1900 Unknown +Mary
