They moved to Pueblo Colorado in 1914. The children they brought to Colorado was Ruby, Ralph J. and Dorothy J. Ritter, the three that survived.
Clara owned several rentals through out Pueblo, which she, her children, and grandchildren helped to maintain. My mom said that her Grandma Clara always had goodies at her house when they visited there as children.
Clara became ill with Lukemia in her late years, her daughter, Ruby Ritter Corbin, cared for her, until Ruby contacted Tuberculosis. Clara was then sent to the Colorado State hospital in Pueblo, as there were no nursing homes available there at that time. That was where Clara resided until her death.
