IF Orange Co., CA has resources for CEMETERY inventory LOOK-UPs . . .
I would like to find out where this man and his wife are buried. Any information on his daughter, Mrs. Peggy Sims of Los Angeles, would be lagniappe!
Earl was one of at least 7 children of:
John Hancock RANDOL & Rebecca Jennie DUDLEY
[Note: Earl's father remarried 5 Jul 1895 to Louisa Elizabeth Halton and had at least 12 additional children.]
I have dug up details on most of Earl's 18 siblings, but his burial location, and descendants remain a mystery.
HERE is WHAT I KNOW:
California Death Index, 1940-1997
Name: Earl C Randol
Social Security #: 510109755
Sex: Male
Birth Date: 27 May 1888
Birthplace: Kansas
Death Date: 6 May 1969
Death Place: Orange
Mother's Maiden Name: Parker [NOTE: No, it was DUDLEY, her step-father was Parker; her father d when she was young]
====================================
Earl's OBIT from "The Hutchinson News" published in Hutchinson, Reno Co., Kansas May 10, 1969:
"Earl C. Randol, 80. formerly of Hutchinson, died Tuesday in Santa Ana, Calif. Born May 27, 1888, in Oklahoma, he worked for the Kelly Milling Co. here 21 years before moving to California in 1947.
He is survived by the widow and a daughter, Mrs. Peggy Sims, Los Angeles."
========================================
In abt 1911 Earl m Laura Elizabeth Mahoney. I have not yet been able to find a marriage record. I believe the following records are the same Laura:

Birth Date: 1 Mar 1894

Last Residence: 93240 Lake Isabella, Kern, California, USA
Born: 1 Mar 1894
Died: Aug 1982
State (Year) SSN issued: California (1973)
=======================================
I wish Earl's obit had named his widow, because some of the Randol's did divorce and remarry. I am "assuming" Earl & Laura stayed married to each other and that "Mrs. Peggy Sims, Los Angeles" was THEIR daughter. I want to know who all of Earl's descendants were; ANY tidbits would be GREAT!
I am dependent upon the Internet for details.
Respectfully yours,
