I am trying to find the correct genealogy for the great early 20th century Los Angeles boxer, Joe Rivers. His birth name was Jose Ybarra, born March 19, 1891 (some sources list 1892), and died on June 25, 1957 in Inglewood. He is buried at Calvary Cemetery, Los Angeles. Joe married Pauline Slert of Santa Monica in 1913. His father was Andres (also listed as Andrew) Ybarra. Joe's mother (surname was perhaps Romero or Moreno) appears in the 1920 census for Los Angeles as Mary Rivera, along with her two other sons, Andrew, Gus, and an adopted daughter, Lupe Ortiz. The family home, built new from Joe's boxing prize money, was located at 709 Solano Avenue, jut a few steps from Dodger Stadium-it still stands today. Any help with the genealogy and in locating living family members would be greatly appreciated. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
