Marion Arthur PRAY, b 23 Sep 1885 Delta, Fulton, OH, d 19 Dec 1945 Toledo State Hospital, Lucas, OH. He had been a patient there for 5 days before his death from heart disease. His father was Joseph bp Delta and his mother's maiden name was Eva HARRINGTON bp Swanton, OH. He was a watch maker and was married to Lonie. Marion was buried 23 Dec 1945 in Greenlawn Cemetery, Delta.

Ernest was born in June 1889 and was still single in the 1920 Hudson, Lenawee, MI census, living with his mother and stepfather. I cannot locate Ernest in the 1930 census.

In the 1930 Hudson census, James Eicher is a widow and living with him is his daughter Lelah and her family;
