A check of the Social Security Death Index showed a possible lead to follow up:
Charles Piatt, b 19 March 1905, death October 1975, last residence Marion OH. Remember, only Nathan's family was the only one in Marion Co in 1910 and they had a Charles E born in 1905.
With Nathan having three sons, there would be a rather good chance of Nathan having a living male descent. Let's cross fingers. Good luck.
Heritage Quest does not offer the 1930 census. Perhaps someone with access to Ancestry could check for these folks in 1930.
