Clara Sophia Rothrock was the third of five known children of Dr. Roswell R. (or David Roswell?) Rothrock (1831-1897) and Catherine Mohney (1835-1916), who married 04 Aug 1853 at New Bethlehem, Clarion County, Pennsylvania. Some records show Clara died 18 Sep 1930, which is correct?
Clara married Edward Knepp (1852-1920) in Dec 1874 at presumably Pennsylvania. Clara and Edward were the parents of seven children, the names of whom six are known, namely:
1. Minnie Catherine Knepp Mitchell Humphrey (1875-1948)
2. Lorena "Rena" Mary Knepp Fisher (1877-1955)
3. Anetta S. Knepp Herbster (1879-1935)
4. Roswell E. Knepp (1883-1929)
5. Edith Clara Knepp Aurand (1884-1961)
6. Eva C. Knepp True (1885-1985)
In 1880 the parents, Rena and Anetta (Minnie was living with Clara's Rothrock parents for some reason) were living at West Beaver, Snyder County, Pennsylvania. In 1900 the parents and last three listed children were living at South Derry Township, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania. Edward was listed as a carpenter and Clara said she was the mother of seven, six living. Thus one child is missing from the above listing. In 1910 the parents were living alone at Lewistown, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania. Clara is said to have died at the age of 73 and lived her adult life at Lewisburg, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania. Edward was a carpenter on the Lewisburg and Sunbury Railroad for many years, living at Lewistown, Pennsylvania. On 14 April 1930 the widow Clara was living with her daughter Eva, and son-in-law Harry True (age 46, a brakeman on a steam railroad) at Lewistown, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania.
Edward was the son of Peter Knepp (1824-1893) and Sophia Smith (1831-1892).
