Death Certificate #2257-a spells the given name Polina. Informant was S. Cobb (her son Shelton Thomas Cobb, who was literate). I think early census takers spelled it Perlina a couple times because of the accent. But other records have "o","a",or "au" to represent the "ah" sound, not "erl". Newspaper believe it was obit has Paulina. But I believe it was originally Polina to honor her maternal grandmother, Mary "Polly" Morris Boone. Polly was the common nickname for Mary in those days.
