Richard Combs Clary died February 2(?), 1830 and was buried on a knoll above his father in the family cemetery. Cary followed her husband on June 23, 1854. Richard and Cary Clary were the parents of nine children." [by James H.

note: two conflicting dates for death of Richard Clary - latest date may be that of probation of will.
