I am trying to find the parents of Albert Lorenzo Rouse who married Clara Ida Cobb Simpkins in Pike County, Illinois on Novermber 13, 1881. Lots of loose ends-- Clara was married more than once, how did John Randall Rouse figure into this--how did Merrill Golding, half brother to John Albert Rouse, son of  Albert Lorenzo Rouse, figure into this family?  I need help!  I believe John Albert Rouse and sister Phileta were children of Clara Ida Cobb Rouse and Albert Lorenzo Rouse but need some proof.

John Albert Rouse and his wife, Evelyn Caspari Rouse were my grandparents. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
