You will find that all Cloars originated in this country from the Germanna Colony in Virginia in 1714. They came from Germany. The first was Hans Michael KLAAR from Gemmingen, Baden, Germany. A very good book has been written by Gary J. Zimmerman titled THE ANCESTRY of the CLORE, KAIFER AND THOMAS FAMILIES.It was published in Bountiful UT about 1990. Books have also been published on the Germanna Colony that have a great deal of info. It would be incumbant on you to work out the line to your family. Clayton Library in Houston has some info on this colony as well as, of course, the Fanily History Library in Salt Lake.
