Instructions Please complete the following ancestry questions to the best of your knowledge. Adding as much as you can back to at least a surname Clay is greatly appreciated. Only your most recently known Clay deceased connection is absolutely required: name, date & place of birth, and date & place of death. However, the further back you can go, the more likely it is that your line will merge with an existing Clay line or at least give other Clay researchers enough information to help you with your research. Since not everyone agrees with a particular line, we appreciate documented events only. We provide three generations of detail boxes, but you may continue the 4th and earlier generations in the large text box under Instructions for Additional Ancestry at the bottom of this section. This questionnaire is part of your Profile, so you can log in and return to it to provide updates. SPECIAL NOTE: If you know that you have no Clay ancestors yet desire to be a member of the CFS anyway, please enter None in each for the REQUIRED fields below.
