Hi, Wanda,
Go to
http://vitals.rootsweb.com/ca/death/search.cgi
You'll find your George W. Carrol's mother's maiden name was Caples and
"Geneva Janie" Carroll's mother's maiden name was Wooley.
I couldn't bring up anything to match Geneva in 1920-1930 census under any
variations.
The closest possible fit for the George "Wallie" Carroll you describe seems to
be "Wylie" Carroll age 24 in 1930 Johnson County TX, son of George S. (53 b. TX,
parents b. LA) and Clemie Carroll (46 b. TX, parents b. MS). Other children are Claudie
(male 22), Jess M. (male 20), Dee (male), Birl (male 16).
This Carroll family is in Grayson County in 1920 with same sons and two older widowed
daughters and their children. The son's name is still Wiley age 13. So you would
need more info to know it's the correct family.
George and Geneva have Social Security numbers, their parents names should be on them ($27
each, you can get application letters generated at
http://ssdi.genealogy.rootsweb.com/ ).
Geneva is listed as Janie Carroll on the SSDI.
Regards and good luck in your search,
