Sons of Jim Britton

The list of children that Jim Britton McClellan had continues starting at the seventh child and continues till the end. The remaining children that were born were all sons.

Fred McClellan married Janetta Hardy Hamilton (1902-1966) and they married in 1922. They would have six children overall, but two of them passed away before reaching a year old. Fred served in World War II and survived. The last names of the children that married are McClellan, Baderrama, and Burmeister. J

Jim Louis McClellan married Alice Hume (1903-1927) and they married in 1923. They never had children in the four years that they were married, but Jim never remarried after her death. They are both buried in Saltcoats, Saskatchewan.

William Richard “Boots” McClellan served in the U.S. Navy. He would have three wives, and at least 1 child in each one of his marriages. In total, he would have 7 children. Their last names of the children that married are McClellan, Jones, Bueche, and Reasy.

Harry Marian McClellan would marry Helen Elizabeth Mionsell in 1932. They never had children, and both are buried in Omaha. Meanwhile his brother John Henry McClellan would marry in 1930 to Ladean Maasen (1911-1981) and have one son together named Jobe. Jobe would marry have have two sons and a daughter. The last McClellan that was born is that of Alfred Louis Kenneth “Bub” McClellan. He married Maggie Morton Sinclair (1908-1951) in 1932. They would have no children together.

With that the children of Jim Britton and Ala Mary Kenny have come to an end. Many of their descendants served in the U.S. armed forces in some way or another, whether if its was Coast Guard, Navy, Army, or Air Force. Looking at the sons and daughters of Jim and Ala, it would seem that there is the next generation of family members that continue the tradition and remaining legacy of the Wade-McClellan-Holland-Marsh family into the 21st century. Let us remember their family members that have passed the knowledge on that tells the tale of Georgia McClellan moving her family to Iowa and starting a multi-generational legacy of her story from the Battle of Gettysburg.
