Pauline was a sales lady in a local Odessa drugstore. Her father was C.N. Smithers born in Texas and her mother was Francis Sullivan of Texas. She is buried by Jack Lewis Collins and a Pearl Scott Collins who may have been her husband and daughter. This is supposition. However on the 1930 Texas census there is a Jack Collins with a Pauline listed as wife. Also a Jack Collins was the informant for the information on Pauline's death certificate.

Hello Wanda M. After doing some research on ancestry.com I discovered that Jack Lewis Collins was first married to Pauline Smithers in 1929. She passed away in 1942 and then he married Pearl Lee Scott in 1945. So they are both his wives.
