The following may be of some help.
From Wapello county marriage records:
Clara Alice Clarridge married Harry E. Bollinger on 12 Feb 1892 in Wapello county
Mary Clarridge married R.M. Gummere on 10 Nov 1870 in Jefferson county
Vivian E. Clarridge married Garold C. Fleener on 16 Jan 1915
James W. Clarridge married Drusilla Peters on 7 Feb 1912I find nothing in the Wapello WPA records for Clarridge; however, there are several Clarridge burials listed in Fell Cemetery, Des Moines Township, Jefferson county, but none match any of the names you provided.
I did find the following additional information:
Clara Alice Clarridge was born 2 Apr 1874 in DeWitt county, Illinois and died on 21 Jul 1955 in Ottumwa, Wapello county. She is buried in Ottumwa Cemetery.
Harry E. Bollinger was born 6 Aug 1868 in Wapello county and died on 17 Aug 1952 in Iowa City, Johnson county, Iowa. Also buried in Ottumwa Cemetery.
They had at least 4 children:
Harry Irwin Bollinger, born 10 Mar 1895 in Ottumwa and died 4 Jun 1947 in Ottumwa
John Bollinger, probably born in Ottumwa
Clarence Bollinger, born 15 Dec 1897 in Ottumwa and died on 23 Jul 1947 in Ottumwa.
Floyd Clarridge Bollinger, born 8 Mar 1892 in Ottumwa and died on 17 Nov 1947 at the Veterans Hospital in Des Moines, Polk county, Iowa. He was a World War I veteran.
I find it somewhat odd that 3 sons died within 6 months of each other.
