I am looking for any info about William and Clarissa and their families. The little I know I gleaned from birth and death certificates and census information.

-William was born in England about 1843.
-I don't have Clarissa's maiden name but it as believed she was born about 1840 in Illinois.
-They had at least 4 children, Sophia Jane, Florence Bell, William Barton and Chester.
-Between 1900 and 1910, they moved to Chicago, IL but all 4 children were born in Ontonagon County, MI.
-Sophia died without marring at the age of 18
-Florence married 3 times John Hayes/Frank Thornton/Kresser
-I'm not sure where William Barton went to after 1910
-Chester married Gertrude (?maiden) and they had at least one child named William.
-William, Clarissa, Chester and Gertrude are buried in the Chicago Area
-Florence is buried in the Aurora, IL area.
