Biography* Clara Earnest was the daughter of William Jehu and Emily Julia Ann Josephine (East) Culpepper. Her parents were noted in the 1880 census of the Louina Beat (now Wadley) in Randolph Co., AL and this is probably where she spent her early years. Around 1890, the family is believed to have moved to a farm in the Hurricane Creek area of Grant Co., AR and Clara presumably accompanied her parents there.3 Unfortunately, the 1890 U. S. census records were burned. In the mid-1890's, Clara again accompanied her parents as they moved to Hopkins Co., TX and she appears with her parents in 1900 and 1910 census records there.

Clara married Robert Jackson McGill in 1914 census. Robert's father was noted in Randolph Co., AL records as a neighbor of the Culpepper's so Clara and Robert might have known each other from Alabama. The couple settled down to raise their family in Texas. Clara died in 1943 at the age of 60.
