Census Notes for Henry Oscar & Sarah Frances (Family)
I cannot find this family in the 1920 census.

1930 census of Elliott Co., Ky, Sinking precinct, enumerated 19 April, lists on p. 13B as family #211:
Heyer, Henry, 43, age at first marriage 32, b. Ohio Germany Germany, shoe worker; Sarah, wife, 44, age at first marriage 33; Conley, Preston, stepson, 23, b Ky Ky Ky, farm laborer.

Sarah was only 16 at her first marriage, so they must have misinterpreted the question to mean the age at which they married each other.
