    Family 2 Kenneth Bateman 
    Notes 
    • Not sure if the Kenneth Bateman she married in Kenneth L. Bateman (1898-1980). His second marriage was in 1971, and Pearl's first husband, Clarence, died in 1978. She was married to Klaud Kinne in 1982, so I assume she was married to Kenneth Bateman sometime between 1978-1982.
