Daughter of Christopher Colin Johnston & Elenor McDonald
Clara was a very special young woman with a heart as big as they get. When her Aunt Belle (Isabella Johnston Graves) became ill along with some of her grand children, Clara went to help them. Sadly, during her efforts Clara contracted typhoid fever and died from it.
