CHARLES O. MCCLURE

Charles O. McClure, who is engaged in general farming and stock raising one mile west of Delaware, was born on the 17th of September, 1870, in Illinois, a son of George and Mattie (Powers) McClure. Both parents were born in Illinois and the father farmed there until 1879, when he removed to Kansas, locating near Liberty. He was active in agricultural pursuits there until a few days previous to his death, which occurred in 1908. Mrs. McClure died when Charles O. was but an infant. In the family were eight sons: Harvey G., Edward A., Bert, John, Mead, Clyde, Claude and Charles O. Harvey met his death in a passenger elevator accident in Denver, Colorado, on the 7th of March, 1896.
