My grandfather was Pearl Carney. He was born in 1872 in either Kentucky or Indiana (or
even some other state?). As far as I know he had no middle name. His father's name
may have been William Carney. The earliest census in which I have found Pearl Carney is
1910 in Kentucky, living as a boarder with John Rotts. In that census Pearl Carney is
married to Grace Louise Jack and has four living children with him (Lucille, Theodore,
Alvin, and Roger). My father was Alvin. According to the 1920 census Pearl Carney and
his family was living in Los Angeles, California with an additional living child,
Lawrence. Pearl Carney died in 1930 in Pasadena, California. He was burried in the
Hollywood Cemetery, Hollywood, California.
