What I know about Clarence Parks of Bay County, MI: Clarence Parks of Bay County, MI was born to George H. and wife Matilda (Manor) Parks. They were married in 1902. They divorced in 7 Aug. 1924. The divorce decree is online. They had 7 children:
Alfred Parks... 19... at time of divorce;
Irma... age 16...at time of divorce;
Arthur Parks...age 14 at time of divorce;
George Parks (Jr), age 11...at time of divorce;
Elma B. Parks, age 9...at time of divorce.
Clarice (female) and Clarance (male), twins, age 4... at time of divorce.
It is relatively unknown what happened to any of them after 1924. With the exception of Arthur Parks. He retired to West Palm Beach, FL, and died approximately 1978-85. We do know that Matilda Manor came from a very long line of French Canadians who settled in Canada and did trade in the US via Michigan for over a hundred years before the Parks' arrived in Bay City. She is buried in the extensive family plot in Bay County.
As for Clarence, the youngest boy of the family, I am still seeking information and continuing to research what happened to him.
