Hi Mike,
I'm not related, but here is some info that I think is for your Clissa/Clisa and others connected to her:
www.findagrave.com
Clissa Irvin
b. 6 Jan 1872
d. 13 Jan 1948
buried Holdenville Cemetery, Hughes County, OK
William H. Cordell and his wife, Eva, are also buried there.***NOTE:The dates on their tombstones are a bit different that the dates found on the Social Security Death Index and also on Williams draft registration card.
William H. Cordell
b. 25 March 1891
d. 15 Jan 1968
Seminole, Seminole, OK
Eva Cordell
b. 2 March 1896
d. 15 Oct 1966
Seminole, Seminole, OK
-------------------
I think Clissa/Clisa was born in Lawrence County, OH, and was the daughter of Perry Caufman/Kauffman/Kaufman and his wife, Mary.Perry was born about 1847 in OH and was found on the 1850 and 1860 census of Lawrence County, OH.I haven't found them on the 1870 census yet.
Here is the family in 1880, Pyeatt, Pulaski County, AR
www.familysearch.org:
Caufman, Perry, self, married, male, white, 33, b. in OH, farmer, father b. in VA, mother b. in KY
---Mary J., wife, married, female, white, 37, b. OH, father and mother b. in VA
---Abram, son, single, male, white, 9, OHOHOH

---Sarepta, daughter, single, female, white, 4, OHOHOH
---Tecumsah, son, single, male, white, 6 mos., OHOH OH
***On other census, the surname is spelled Kauffman or Kaufman.

Clissa's father, Perry Kauffman/Kaufman, was the son of David Kauffman/Kaufman born about 1815 in VA.In 1850, Elizabeth, Lawrence County, OH, David's wife was Mary b. about 1812 in OH.
I could not find any info on Robert Cordell.
Thomas J. Irvin, was born about 1870 in AR.I found Thomas and Clisa on the 1910, 1920, and 1930 census, Hughes County, OK.I could not find them in 1900.
I could not find any marriage records for Clisa.
I hope some of this info will help.
Good luck with your research!
