Want to correspond with others working the William CLEARY line. William
Was in Spartanburg Co, SC from 1820 to about 1844. He moved to Murray County,
Gerogia before the 1850 census. Soon after that he moved to Columbia County,
Arkansas where he is listed on the 1860 census. His first wife died before
1850. What was her name? Some of his children by that marriage are William
E., Caroline (who married William JEFFRIES & John GOTCHER), and Lenoir
CLEARY. His second wife Matilda was about 30 years younger than William.
They had George W., Eliza P., Edward F., Mary, and Sarah CLEARY. Dianne
