(The genders for Venta=Venton and Audra do not match Oscar Crum's sketch of the family. I suspect the enumerator did not ask for gender, and assigned them on the basis of name.) Levi and Oscar are sons of Etta and her first husband Steven Hubbard Dehart, even though they are listed as Clarks.
The next household is that of David’s mother Mary, with her second husband W. P. Dehart.
