Narnie Clardy was born on September 3, 1896 in Missouri. She was the daughter of Willis Bowen Clardy
and Evaline “Eva” Gabriel. Narnie was
raised in St. Michael, Madison County, Missouri.
Narnie married Edward
Nichols Paxton around 1913, probably in Jackson County, Missouri. She was 17 years old and he was 20
years. Edward was born on March 13, 1893

Edward registered for

Missouri. At that time, he and Narnie were
living at 515 N. Pleasant Street in Independence, Jackson County, Missouri. Edward was employed as an Auto Merchant at
the Paxton-Duke Motor Company in Independence.
He was listed as a Corporal, having served three years in the 3rd
Regiment in Missouri. He claimed
exemption from the draft, as his left foot had been amputated at the arch. He was described as of medium height and
build, with blue eyes and light brown hair.
Edward did not serve in the war.
In 1920, Edward and
Narnie were still living in Independence, Jackson County, Missouri, where
Edward managed a garage.
By 1930, Edward and

County, Missouri. Their home was valued
at $12,000 and Edward was working as a lawyer.

Narnie, now a widow,
was living in a home on North Union Street in Independence, Jackson County,
Missouri in 1940. Listed in her
household were her two sons, John and William; and her widowed mother.
Narnie married again
on August 28, 1943 in Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri. She married Montrose Mortimer Boggess, a
widower. This was his third
marriage. Montrose was born on May 7,
1888 in Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri. He was the second of nine
children born to Earle Montrose Boggess and Hattie A. Gaugh.
Narnie Clardy Paxton
Boggess died two and a half years later, on January 19, 1946 in Kansas City,
