 Report (1851), page 214, gives Chat-sops. Scouler, in Journal, Ethnological Association, London (1846), gives Chadsops. Schoolcraft, in Indian Tribes, map (1853), gives Clasops. Lewis and Clark give Clat-sops. Farnham, in Travels, (1843), page 111, gives Clatsops. The Clatsops were of the Chinookan family, formerly at the mouth of the Columbia River, on the south side, between Tongue Point and the ocean, and south to Tillamook Head.

He was a native of Germany and a veteran of the Civil War. Clem is a station on the Condon branch of the Oregon-Washington Railroad & Navigation Company.
