This house is listed in the National Register of Historic Places under the name "Margaret and Vernon Maxon House"; the surname is spelled "Maxon" throughout the NRHP nominating form. This is apparently an error. A sign on the lawn spells the name "Moxon". An obituary published by Huron's Kuhler Funeral Home and an obituary published in the Seattle Times give the decedent's name as "Margaret L. Moxon", and her late spouse's name as "Vernon Moxon" both formerly of Huron. An entry at FindAGrave from the Restlawn Memorial Gardens of Huron includes a photo of a stone on which the names "Vernon W." and "Margaret L." are over the surname "Moxon". The NRHP nominating form for the Edbert and Josie Opitz House, a Lustron house in Redfield, South Dakota, states that the original owners of the house were "Vernon and Margaret Moxon", who were "transferred to Huron in 1956"; the form spells the name "Moxon" a second time in that paragraph, but also spells it "Maxon". The nominating form for the Huron house states that "Mr. Maxon worked as a soil scientist"; one of the authors of "Soil Survey of Beadle County, South Dakota" is listed as "Vernon W. Moxon".
