Notes for Clyde Maxie & Emma Elizabeth (Family)
Clyde and Emma apparently married twice.

Summit Co., Ohio marriage record book 56, p. 428 records the marriage on 13 July 1929 of Clyde M. Wright, age 22, residence 766 Garth Ave, Akron, Oh, born 23 Jan 1907 in Cleveland, Tennessee, occupation office clerk, son of John W. Wright and Martha L. Elrod, to Emma E. Kash, age 18, residence 266 Rosedale Court, Akron, Oh, born 27 Mar 1911 in Frenchburg, Ky, no occupation, daughter of J. M. Kash and Myrtle Webb, first marriage for both spouses, by Rev. Robert Davison. Emma’s mother Myrtle Kash signed her consent for the marriage and certified that Emma’s father was deceased. (The maiden name for Myrtle is incorrect on this form; Webb is the maiden name of Myrtle’s mother.)

The California marriage index lists the marriage on 30 Sep 1971 of Clyde M. Wright, age 64, and Emma E. Kash, age 57, in Imperial County.
Census
1930 census of Woodford Co., Kentucky, Millville precinct, enumerated April 3, lists on p. 1B as family #15/16:
Wright, Clyde, 23, age at first marriage 23, b. Tenn Georgia Georgia; Emma, wife, 18, age at first marriage 18, b. Ky Ky Ky.

They are sharing a house with Emma’s brother William at #15/15.

In 1940, Clyde is recorded in Ohio with a different wife named Ruth, age 22, and a daughter Maxine age 8, who is probably a child of Emma’s. (Unfortunately the 1940 census does not list parent birthplaces except for the two lines per page that get supplemental questions.) I have not found Emma in the 1940 census.
