A Record of the CLASPER Family History An Introduction to the 'Clasper' Family Trees Parish Records show that the Clasper family were very much in evidence in the 1700's in the county of Northumberland. It would seem that some of them moved South and settled in the Newcastle, Northumberland and Whickham, County Durham areas.
