Born January 1, 1931, in Marshalltown, Iowa, Clayton Seymour Mittlestadt was the son of Frank and Lillie (Pelham) Mittlestadt. He grew up in Huxley and Cambridge, Iowa, graduating from Cambridge High School in 1948.

Clayton served in the United States Army during the Korean Conflict. Following his honorable discharge from military service, he returned to Iowa and, on September 8, 1956, married Virginia Aileen (Olesen) Larson in Council Bluffs. The couple settled in Ames where Clayton was employed as an auto mechanic at Rex 66 Service for 16 years.

Clayton was an ardent fan of dirt track racing and NASCAR. He built tracks and enjoyed attending and participating in races in Jefferson, Webster City, Boone, and Marshalltown.
