@hudson19947 Could Miss Clara Ward play the piano? Clara taught the daughter of Rev. C.L. Franklin to play the piano....what was that young girl's name? Oh, yes---her name was "Aretha."

With this picture of Clara at the piano, could she actually play the piano bcuz it always shows her singing at the mic when it concert?

Yes she could really play very well. She was the musician on most of the early songs and she wrote quite a few songs as well. All these songs belong to the Ward Publishing House in Philadelphia. But it's been long out of business.
