Brant Clawson's wife's name was Eleanor. Her name has been changed to Neltjie (ten Eyck) Clawson. The only sources listed are on rootsweb. Eleanor was named in Probate court as Garrabrant's wife. Unless a primary source is presented that can prove that Eleanor's name was Neltjie ten Eck I will be changing her name back to Eleanor as listed in the probate court documents.
