Clarence Raymond Jury was the son of Adelbert Lee and Jessie Rosetta (Armstrong) Jury. Clarence was on the family farm in Section 9 of Minonk Township, just one and one quarter east of Minonk, Illinois. He moved with his parents into Minonk in 1915. He attended Minonk schools and graduated from the high school in 1929. He was active in athletics while in high school, being a member of the basketball squad. He then attended Bradley Polytechnic Institute at Peoria, where he was graduated with the class of 1933. Following graduation from college, he worked for an oil company in Peoria, IL for a time and then went to Jacksonville, Florida. He was an assistant coach and instructor in architectural drawing at the Robert E. Lee High School in Jacksonville.

Clarence married Vesta Martin in October 1937. Vesta was a graduate of a high school in Jacksonville, Florida and was employed in the office of an insurance company in Jacksonville at the time of their marriage and following.

Clarence usually came to Minonk during the summer months to visit his parents and to help his brothers on the farms. He planned to come to Minonk following the dismissal of school in the summer of 1941, but took ill and was admitted to the hospital in Jacksonville. He had an appendectomy and was in the hospital for three weeks. During this time, a blood clot formed on his lung, but it was thought to have been dissolved. Instead, it moved to his back, and he passed away at the age of 30. His body was returned to Minonk, IL and is buried in the Minonk cemetery. Clarence and Vesta had no children.
