Surnames: Poor, Poore, Pitt, King
I am looking for any living grand or great-grandchildren of the following:

Ruth Poore married Ralph J. Pitt abt. 1916 in San Bernardino Co., CA. Ruth was born 3 Jan 1892 in Belleview, Calhoun, IL & died 19 Dec 1853 in Long Beach, CA; Ralph was born 14 May 1883 in Sebastol, CA & died 23 Jun 1953 in San Bernardino County Hospital. They are both buried at Pomona Cemetery, Pomona, CA. They had 1 son, Raymond C. Pitt born 24 Sep 1920 in San Bernardino Co., CA and died 25 May 1986 in Los Angeles, CA. Ruth was the daughter of Francis Marion Poor & Elizabeth Joslin (Joslen) both of Calhoun Co., IL. Ralph was the son of John King.

Percy Harris Poore & Edwina E. King. Percy born 6 Apr 1895 in Belleview, Calhoun, IL & died 25 May 1951 in Los Angeles Coo., CA. Edwina was born 26 Nov 1895 in Arizona & died 27 Sep 1970 in Los Angeles Co., CA. They had 1 daughter, Winifred Elizabeth born 7 Jun 1930 in LA, CA. Percy was the son of Francis Marion Poore & Elizabeth Joslin (Joslen) both of Calhoun Co., IL. Percy's CDI states his mother's maiden name was Booth, but that was incorrect - the Booth was his grandmother.

Archie 'Arch' or 'Artie' B. Poore & wife Liddy or Lydia. Archie was born 16 Sep 1885 in Belleview, Calhoun, IL and died 24 Dec 1969 in Los Angeles Co., CA. I have no information on Liddy, nor any information of children born to this couple. Archie was the son of Francis Marion Poore & Elizabeth Joslin (Joslen) both of Calhoun Co., IL. Archie was a truck driver.

So research is not duplicated, I have: all censuses 1860-1930, all CDI's & CBI's, all military records and the cemetery records of Francis, Elizabeth, Ruth & Ralph. I am looking for more information on these families or to have living relatives contact me.
Thanks,
Lori Z.
