George MORGAN (p. 371)
Jesse MORGAN (p. 377)

CLARY, Isaac O. son of David was born in Daviess County, 1824. This
family headed west, first to Illinois, Crawford & Clinton
Counties.
David gave Ohio as his birth state; however, he may have been born in
what later became KY. His birth year may have been either 1789/90 or
perhaps 1795. Looking for CLARY connections anywhere. See web page at:
