Faye McClelland was a cousin of Edith Shannon, but raised in the same household after the age of 4 yrs.) "Faye was born March 26, 1916 in Drumright, Oklahoma. Her parents were Jesse C. McClellan and Clara Louise Beals. Jesse was in the oil business there. I don't think she ever lived in Ohio (error in 1930 census), since she always lived in Emlenton PA when I knew her. She came to live with my Grandparents, Maurice and Lillian Shannon, at the age of four, after her mother died."
