Dora L. McClain married Noah Clay Henry, Dec. 15, 1891, in Marion Co., Indiana. They were parents of two sons, George Bryan Henry and Carey M. Henry.

Dora filed for divorce in 1914.  The news item confirmed their 1891 marriage, and noted that they had separated Jan. 15, 1914.  This divorce was denied in June 1914.  Apparently Noah filed the next time; their divorce was granted in Johnson Co. in Dec. 1916.

In 1920, Noah was living with Dora's mother, Carrie McClain, and son George. Dora was living in Indianapolis, landlady of a rooming house.  She was still occupied as such in 1930.

Dora married 2nd to George Calvin Sizer, Aug. 17, 1931, in Hancock Co. (Greenfield) Indiana. She was living with Mr. Sizer in Douglas Co., Kansas, in 1940, in which place he died in 1942. By 1950, she was again residing in Indianapolis.
