Notes
- Several genealogies report that Katherine's primary husband was Howard Beeler, and they married in Indiana when she was 18. Thisy also report she was also married to Thomas Gilbert Green, which matches sparse information on the Green side that Tom's second wife was named Katherine. But no genealogy has a timline or marriage date for information on a divorce for Katherine and Howard. Howard lived until 1966, and Katherine died in 1977. Tom died in 1968, and his first wife Delora Black died in 1941. No marriage record has been found for Tom and Katherine.

That was the last directory to list both Belle and Howard. IN 1935, she is alone with their three chidlren.
In the 1933 directory, Howard is not in the picture. Belle is listed alone with her three adult children. This would indicate they divorced abotu 1934. Belle married Thomas Gilbert Green in Fresno aome time between 1935 and the 1940 census, when they are reported married and her three chidlren are in Thomas' hosuehold
