Notes:

From Kentucky Genealogy and Biography, edited by Thomas W. Westerfield (Kentucky: Genealogical Reference Comp, 1971), Vol. II, p. 10 (also in Kentucky: A History of the State, W. H. Perin, J. H. Battle, and G. C. Kniffen, 1885):
	WILLIAM H. H. CLAYPOOL was born December 20, 1841, in Warren County, Ky., where he grew to manhood; removed in 1871 to Port Oliver, and in 1873 located at Gainesville, Allen County, where he has since resided. His father, John W. Claypool, also a native of Warren County, was born in 1810; was an extensive dealer in tobacco and pork, operated a large flouring-mill, and died May 16, 1860. He was the son of Stephen Claypool, a tobacco freighter, who died in 1862. He lost a large number of slaves by the late war. John W. married Lottie, daughter of John and Polly Rector, of Warren County (she died July 27, 1855), and their offspring are Sarah J. (Saunders), Luther, William H. H., Frederick J. (died in the Thirty-third Kentucky Infantry), Joseph R., George P. (deceased), John J. C. and Lottie (Badgett). He next married Mary J. Mitchell, and their children were Elijah (deceased) and May (Motloy). On the 7th of November, 1860, William H. H. Claypool married Lucinda M., daughter of Benjamin and Emily J. (Stark) Pulliam, of Allen County (born June 27, 1843, and died February 19, 1882), and to them were born Charles B., John W., Allie, George, Elijah (deceased), Stephen (deceased) and Henry Clay. November 15, 1885, Mr. Claypool married Miss Mary M. Whitney, daughter of Reaves and Catherine Whitney, born in Allen County April 9, 1858. Mr. Claypool was reared a farmer, followed milling for many years on Bay's Fork, and for the past fourteen years has been engaged in general blacksmithing, in which he has been very successful. He is a member of the A. F. & A. M., and in politics is identified with the Democratic party.

In Marriage Records of Allen County, Kentucky 1815-1865, compiled by Ona A. Willoughby (Scottsville, KY: 1938), there is a listing for a H. H. Claypool, age 53, marrying a Lucinda M. Pulliam, 11-6-1861, with Y. Weatherspoon as the officiant.
