Her 1st husband was William L. Cook
Clara and William had the following children together:
- Sarah Mae "Dilley" Cook (1891 – 1967)
- William Edmond "Edwin" Cook (1893 – 1942)
- Raymond "Ray" Lewis Cook (1895 – 1967)
- Grace C Cook (1896 – 1899)
- Edith L Cook (1898 – 1903)
- Ruth Josephine Cook (1901 – 1918)

Seeking full name of her 2nd husband, last name is definitely Stone, first name initials are believed to have been C R (C R Stone) based on marriage records. No children together.

PUZZLE ABOUT HER AGE AT DEATH: I've identified an interesting dilemma about her birth year (was it 1868 or 1873?). Most of the census records point to her birth year as 1873, however a death record says her birth year was 1868. Assuming 1960 was the correct death year, then based on the number of times her age points to about 1873 in Federal and WA state census records, I currently believe the death record has incorrectly stated 1868 as her birth year. Which means she was 87 instead of 93 at her death. (NOTE: I am open to any evidence either way that helps to resolve this birth year puzzle, and I'll edit the page as needed.)
