Clara Virginia was the 4th child of Benjamin Horn [see memorial] born to his first wife, Regina Reppert. The rest of her siblings by Regina were: Caroline Amelia, Sophie O., Mary A., George, and Hannah Filmore [see memorial].

Clara never married.

Clara most likely died of scarlet fever. Her step brother, Philip Reppert Horn, also died of scarlet fever two months before her.

It is sadly interesting that Clara's father looks to have had nothing to do with burying his daughter, as the grave stone attests. Perhaps her father's second wife split his first wife's children away from hers. Whatever happened, grandfather Reppert made Clara's gravestone possible.
