There is no doubt that untangling the Klock family is a prepetual challenge. The 1910 census would indicate that Clara was 18, born in NY. She is called "Daughter" which should refer to her relationship to Elijah Klock, 74, the head of the household, but she is enumerated after Douglas Henderson age 30 and his wife, Jennie age 31, living in the same household. Jennie could have had Clara at age 12, but that is highly unlikely. On the other hand, if Elijah's wife was near the same age as he was, she would have been past the ususal child-bearing age. Elijah came originally from Jefferson Co., NY, and hhis forebearers came from Montgomery or Herkimer Co., NY. I can trace this family back to at least 1709.
