Seeking ancestry of William Franklin Boothe, father of Clare Boothe Luce.
Clare Boothe Luce (10 April 1903, New York City – 9 October 1987, Washington DC) was an American editor, playwright, social activist, congresswoman, journalist, and ambassador. Witty, perceptive, and determined, she was also a prominent figure in New York social circles.
Clare Boothe Luce was born Ann Clare Boothe, the illegitimate child of dancer Anna Snyder and William Franklin Boothe. Although her father, a violinist, deserted the family when Clare was 9, he instilled in his daughter a love of music and literature. Parts of her childhood were spent in Chicago, Illinois; Memphis, Tennessee; and, with her mother, in France.
