Clarinda Jane Fulkerson b: November 1853 d: ??
John Fishback
b: September 1848 d: between 1920 and 1930
married 1871

John was a farmer and landowner while Clara tended the home and children.  In 1910, with all of their children married and on their own, a granddaughter lived with them.  Her name was also Clarinda (Clara) J. Fishback.  She was born Sept 29, 1901 and died in 1991.  Aparently the younger Clara never married as she is still living with them in 1920 and with the older clara in 1930 when she was 28 years old.  The death index still shows her name as Fishback which also leads me to believe she wasn't married.
Also There is no clue who's child she is.  I'm inclined to lean toward Frank and Dora's child as Dora aparently died young and Frank was living as a border prior to his marriage to Margaretta.  I surmise he may not have been able to take care of his daughter thus she lived with her grandmother,  but there is no evidence of that.
