Clarence, Iowa, sits in Cedar County in eastern Iowa, about 40 minutes from Cedar Rapids and two and a half hours from Des Moines.

It began as Onion Grove, named for the wild onions that grew there, moved closer to the railway, and was incorporated as Clarence in 1866 after a Richard Gere from Clarence, New York, who ran a store called Fish and Gear above the Presbyterian church. By the 1980s it was the kind of rural town where everyone knew everyone.
