Her name either started out as Janet or something that the census takers thought was Janet, because that's how it was rendered in 1900. By 1910 she had gone to Jeannette or something like it (there is no consistent spelling) and then by 1920 she was back to Janet. Everything after that says Janet, there is no alternate spelling in the California Death Index. Her middle name appears exactly once, in the birth record for her son, where it is rendered as "Irena". It never appears again, after that her middle name is simply "Ray" from her maiden name.

Her first husband Donald Barclay Downen was cremated at Angelus Rosedale so I have assumed he is buried there. Her second husband John Tucker was cremated at Hollywood Cemetery (now Hollywood Forever) so I assume that's where he is if his ashes weren't scattered. I haven't found any paperwork on her to indicate what became of her remains. She had two children with Donald Downen so she might be buried or inurned with him, but she might also have ended up with John Tucker. At some point I might check with both of those cemeteries to see if anything shows up.

It is conceivable that her daughter Betty (or Bettie, Bette, etc.) is still alive but if she is still alive she would be over 101 years old as of late 2019.
