He married his second wife, Lora Leah Russell, in Tipton County on May 5, 1920. Mary was a daughter by his second wife. In 1930, Sylvester and family lived in Lakewood, Cuyahoga, Ohio.

From Tipton Tribune, May, 5, 1920;
In the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Conroy on North West street, on Wednesday afternoon at 1:45, the Rev. A. Preston united in marriage, Miss Leah Russell and Sylvester Mobley, of Indianapolis, both well known and highly respected young people. The wedding was a very quiet affair, only a few immediate relatives witnessing the ceremony. Miss Russell has but recently resigned her position at the Bargain Grocery and since the death of her parents, with her twin sister [Lela], has been making her home with the Conroy family. Mr. Mobley is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Mobley of this city, who for the past few years has been located in Indianapolis in the general office of the L.E. and W., where he holds a responsible position.
