Census Notes for Ellis D. & Elva (Family)
1900 census of Bath Co., Ky, Owingsville precinct, enumerated 25 June, lists on pp. 20A-20B as family #432/433:
Hatton, Ellis, 21, b. Sep 1898, farmer; Elva, wife, 25, b. Jan 1875, married (?) years, mother of 2 children, 2 living; Ellis, son, 3, b. Oct 1896; Ethel, dau, 11/12, b. June 1899. All born Ky Ky Ky.

The number of years married column is overwritten multiple times and is illegible as a result. It looks like the Ms for marital status were initially written in the wrong column, and then two different numbers were put on top of those, perhaps 4 and 6 or 4 and 5.

1910 census of Bath Co., Ky, Owingsville precinct, enumerated 7 May, lists on p. 17B as family #432/433:

The ages for Ellis and Ethel are too low, so the same is likely true for the younger children.
