Clara Hoopes living Chester, Pa 1936

Can't say I can help you much with the Owen family, however, I believe I did find Clara & her husband after some creative searching.
The information I have is as follows;
Claire Flarity, daughter of Micheal and Mary (Owens) Flarity, born 18 Aug 1907 in Uniontown, PA and died 30 Jan 1970 in Chester, PA. She was the first wife of William John Hoopes, Jr., the son of William John and Deborah (Major) Hoopes, born 20 Apr 1921 in Chester, PA., whom she married in May 1921. They had two children, Marjorie Elaine & William John III.
Please note the obvious error in William John, Jr.'s year of birth which I believe should be ca 1901 based upon when his brother's Karl & Robert were born, 1903 & 1905 respectively.
Claire may have gone by the name Clara and the surnames Flarity vs Flaherty are also too close to dismiss without further investigation, especially with the Owen tie in.
email me for further details that I have.
