Clarissa was born in 1804 in Georgia (the 1850 census indicates her birthplace as Kentucky although other census appearances indicate it is Georgia). By 1850, Clarissa and her children, but no husband was in Red River County, Texas. Then she appeared on the census for Gonzales County, Texas in 1860. Clarissa died in Texas after 1869, the year she deeded property, originally bought by son John Taylor, to her daughter Clara Bertling, probably in Gonzales County. She does not appear in the 1870 census in Texas. Her son John may have died prior to 1869. |
