Children — born in Wilton Town, Cleveland Twp., Little River Co., AR:

I'm assuming these children are Pearl's, born before she and Henry got married. If not, then Henry had a prior wife.

1. Marie STROOPE / STROUPS, b. 1911/2; d. 1971, LA
2. Joseph O. "Joe" STROOPE / STROUPS, b. 1913/4
3. Bertha L. STROOPE / STROUPS, b. Mar 1916 or 29 Apr 1923; d. 20 Sep 1981, Los Angeles, Los Angeles Co., CA

The five-year gap between Bertha and Osie suggests there may have been a gap between wives.
