  • Notes 
    • Not much is known about Clara. She was the daughter of Thomas Monroe Reynolds and his first wife Mary Jane Tittsworth. She was admitted to Central Hospital between 1900-1910 and lived there until her death. Thomas abandoned his family in this time period also. One older member of the family who visited Clara there remembered her saying she was placed there for "smarting off". Central Hospital records were destroyed long ago so no further info was obtained.

      Thomas and Nancy never appear in the census together again and list themselves as widow/widower. This was a family with many secrets, some never to be told.

      For additional info and pictures of this family, visit ancestry.com under the user name "montanapets". Clara was my great aunt. [2]
