Welcome to the Clemens side of the family.  I will be putting all the information I can find about my Clemens ancestors here.  If you have any information on this side of my family, please contact me to fill in the gaps.

Background:

         The Clemens line is an older American line.  Some of my more interesting ancestors include Charles Clemens who was an officer in the Civil War.  When my grandmother died, we inherited a box of letters that he sent home to his family during that conflict.  I hope to have those published here before long.
         Also in this line is the Robertson line (my Grandmother's mother's family).  They were fortunate to be in the coal business (and higher up in that business).  Their wealth allowed my Grandmother to not have to worry about money.  Must have been nice.
          It is also rumored that connected in this family line is the Shoemaker family; specifically one of the Shoemakers that first identified/ developed anthracite coal.
