Biography

Clarence was born in 1886 to Mordecai Cordell and Sarah Edger (possibly Edgar).

He married Lottie Anderson on 12 Jan 1913 in Otero Colorado. I don't believe they had any children. Clarence worked for the railroad for years, is listed on the pension roles.

He passed away in Colorado in 1946 and was buried in Hillcrest Cemetery in Rocky Ford, Otero County, Colorado^[1]
