No information on my great-great-grandparents?

Question

There names were: Carl Pinson Waters

Della Dobbins

All I know is that they were from Pasadena,California.Any information on them would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Do you have your grandparents' approximate birth and death dates within five to ten years?  Ancestry.com lists two Carl Waters who died in California, but no Carl Pinson Waters.  I've found a Della Dobbins Lathrop who was born on 31 Jul 1882 in Illinois and who died on 25 March 1952 in San Diego, California. Does this sound like your great grandmother?

Answer 2

from ancestry.com

Carl Pinson Waters

California Voter Registration:

1926, 1930, 1932, 1934, 1946, 1948, 1950, 1952, 1954 Los Angeles Co, CA

Della Waters

California Voter Registration:

1922, 1926, 1928, 1930, 1934, 1942, 1948, 1950, 1952, 1954 Los Angeles Co, CA

Here's a couple of possibilities on Della in 1930:

Della M Dobbins Father: Bernard J,

Mother: Louise D From: Massena, Saint Lawrence, NY abt 1924     Daughter  

Della M Dobbins  Gastonia, Gaston, NC abt 1925     Granddaughter  

This is all I could find.

Answer 3

Do you have any dates for them?

What were the kids names?

There are several Carl Waters, no Della Waters.

Here is a Della Waters.  The census says she is widowed which is a nice way of saying divorced (sometimes)
