Elmer Albert and Dorothy Christine (Wurm) Dehnhard had one child:
1 - Mary E. Dehnhard was born 11 Sept 1905 at Sandusky, Ohio and died 19 July 1975 in Huron County, Ohio. Her birth record at the Erie County Probate Court lists her name as Lamont Dehnhard. She never married.
(Note - Dorothy's obituary lists a second surviving daughter, Mrs. Robert Gray, however I have been unable to verify this daughter's identity. Erie County birth records do not include any other child other than Mary/Lamont born to Elmer and Dorothy. Mary is also the only child enumerated with Dorothy in the 1910 and 1920 censuses.)
