This census entry represents a bit of a wild goose chase because of a complicated blended family that I can't quite figure out.  Clyde Duba age 4 3/12 later married a woman named Loretta M., last name unknown.  Loretta was the daughter of Fronia Ann (Froney) Cagley and a man whose name is unknown.  Froney was the first wife of Harold Temple Bray.  Harold and Froney were enumerated as husband and wife in 1930 in Loudon County, Tennessee in 1930.  But Harold married Eddie Wait Hoyt in Texas about 1932, and Loretta was born to Froney about 1934.  So it seems likely that Harold and Froney were divorced about 1931.

Harold Temple Bray was the son of William Webster (Billy or W.W.) Bray and Rhoda Amos, and the grandson of my second great grandparents Joseph A. (Joe) Bray and Ferriba Salina (Salina) Moore.  As such, Uncle Billy was the brother of my great grandmother Mary Mahala Jane (Mahala or Haley) Bray, and Harold was the first cousin of my grandmother Lola Ethel Williamson.

Clyde was the son of William Duba age 39 and Fay Edna (Edna) Heck age 21.
