Research notes for Alfred Earl (Spouse 1)
I still can't find Alfred Earl in 1920 but I found Clara listed with her mother in Cairo IL:
Name Age
Harriet Simpson 63 head widow keeper of a rooming house
Clara Heathcock 43 dau married b Kentucky, parents both born Kentucky
Willa May Winn 23 grand-dau single
Rollo J Halle 23 boarder
Treva Halle 23 boarder
Katherine Halle 2 boarder
Note that it says Clara is "married" not "widow" like her mother. This tells me that Alfred Earl was still around somewhere but not yet found in the census. Willa May Winn was presumably Clara's daughter by her first marriage.
