I believe this Elmer C. Pruett is the son of
Clifford W. and Beulah M. Pruett here's the link for the family's census page from 1930

Clifford W. Pruett was the son of
J.W. Pruett b. 3 Dec. 1854
d. 24 Nov. 1901
and
Mary Almeda (COGBURN)Pruett b. 2 Jun. 1863
d. 5 April 1939 in Wise County, TX
Both John W. and Mary Almeda are buried in the Cogburn Cemetery near Leo, Texas in Cooke County.
Mary Almeda is the daughter of Orren and Rebecca (KNIGHT) Cogburn. Mary Almeda's sister, Sarah Elizabeth COGBURN is my ancestor. She married Nathaniel PRUETT. Nathaniel and Sarah are buried in Slidell cemetery in Wise County.
I believe John W. and Nathaniel PRUETT were brothers, maybe sons of Joel Pruett.I have only begun to research the PRUETT side of our family
I hope this answers some of your questions.
