FOLLOWUP
The source notes that when Clara was a child, the family fell upon difficult financial times and much of the farm was mortgaged to keep the family going. After her mother's hospitalization, Clara took charge of the family and regained at least part of their land through the courts. She alwo woked for multiple families as a housekeeper in her early teens, and after marrying Leopold, renting to boarders and working part-time in a grocery. [research-conversation-with-{private}-2011]
Leo and Clara probably married 6 Oct 1915 in Clay County, Minnesota. (Certificate 000K-398)
Why was Clara in Minnesota (Moorhead) in 1940, California (Los Angeles) in 1949, back to Minnesota (Detroit Lakes) in 1955, and back in California (Paradise) by 1960? Was her temporary return to Minnesota for family reasons? In particular, when did her sister Sophie's husband die; and did Clara move to Minnesota to be with her sister at that time? Was she "officially" living there, or was her permanent address still in California. That reason would have gone away after Sophie died in 1955. And where was Leo at this time? Did he come with her, or did he stay in California?
