Re. the children: Since this is a VR and not a gen, I don't know who John 3rd is. All I can do is surmise all ch with "John and Lois" are siblings because that is the designation for Louisa, with whom I started. Therefore it's likely that those for John 3rd are not.
All four of John and Lois's ch are girls. All six of John 3rd are boys.
I did look through all the S names for Clarissa. The only Clarissa (Shaw) was from a different grave record / location (G.R.8; Private Record (P.R.) 147). Van Wert-93 00:59, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
