Re: Clakley surname search
Brooke,
You are welcome to come back to our reunion. It will be held the first Sunday in June in Frankston at the VFW hall on Hwy 175.

Re: Clakley surname search
Thanks, Brooke. Yes, my Grandpa Solomon Clakley lived in Frankston with his family. I have also heard that the Holsombacks are attached to the Clakley Family somewhere. We still have the Clakley reunion the first Sunday of every June. At least the past two years it has been at the LaPoyner Civic center.

Robert Clakley, how far have you gotten into your Clakley tree?

Re: Clakley surname search
Thanks Brooke. Yes, there is a connection between the Clakleys and Holsombacks. I am thinking that Lizzie Clakley was a previous wife of Solomon Levi Clakley (birth around 1880). Her maiden name was recorded as Lizzie Holsmback on a 1904 marriage certificate. Solomon Levi is listed as S L Clakley.

Re: Clakley surname search
Hey guys, just wanted to help with some info. There are actually two connections for the Clakleys and Holsombacks. Elizabeth Holsomback Married Levi Clakely as stated above. In addition William Arthur Holsomback (Elizabeth's brother), married Dicie Lucille Clakley (Levi's sister). William Arthur and Dicie were my great grandparents. Hope that helps.
