Perry R. Claypool married Mary Ann Barnette [sic] July 27, 1834 in Warren County, Kentucky. They were the parents of nine known children, all born in Warren County, Kentucky except the youngest daughter Genoah.
In 1854 the Perry R. Claypool family moved into Hamilton township, Caldwell County, Missouri from Bowling Green, Warren County, Kentucky. When the town of Hamilton was organized in 1856-57, Perry Claypool was one of the first three blacksmiths in the area, but had the first permanent blacksmith shop. About 1859, Perry and his wife bought the hotel run by A.G. Davis and ran it for over a decade with the help of their daughters. It was on the same block as the blacksmith shop.
Perry died September 2, 1879 after a long illness and was buried in the old Rohrbaugh cemetery where they had already buried a daughter, Mrs. Mollie Green. When Mrs. Claypool died, she was buried in the new cemetery at Hamilton and the other dead were moved. Perry and Mary Ann are in unmarked graves in the east end of this cemetery.
