2. 1880 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com): There is a William CLARK (æ 10/12, b. Sep in GA) living in Cherokee Co., GA, with his parents, Noah & Mary (MARTIN) CLARK. Dora isn't born yet, but I can't find her mother, either, though her uncle, John Henry CORBIN, is in Cherokee Co., GA. The problem is, if there's a section of the Cherokee County census missing, could the record for Dora's future husband also be missing? While the son of Noah & Mary is a near fit, he's not a great fit. We need something additional to confirm this connection.
