Cleora Webster married Theophilus Clement in 1826. I have been informed that her parents are Roswell Webster and Rhoda Buell, but I have nothing that verifies this information. It is possible since Theophilus and Cleora had two sons names Isaac Roswell Clement and Friend Buell Clement. The family continued to use Roswell and Buel(l) when naming their children.
It has been said that Cleora is a second cousin of Daniel Webster which means they share the same great
grandparent(s). Using what is currently online and known about Cleora and Daniel's ancestors,they do not share the same Webster great grandparents. I am trying to find the link to this claim made by one of her sons.
Cleora's husband, Theophilus Clement, is a third cousin with Daniel through the maternal lines. I am wondering if the son got the facts wrong and it isn't Cleora Webster who is related to Daniel Webster. I am trying to find Cleora's ancestors. I question what is online.
For one, they say her name is Orra Cleora Webster. I find no record that her name was Orra. Her name on her tombstone and in census records is Cleora Clement. Orra could have been a nickname but I do not find any record of this.
Her birth date is given online as about 1809. This isn't possible since the census shows her as being 5 years older than her husband who was born in 1806. Plus her cemetery listing at Panama Cemetery. She died 17 Nov 1877 at age 76 years, 3 months. This would make her birth date about 17 Aug 1801.
I am looking for direction as to tracing her famly back. Any assistance I can get would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kevin
