Early years
Verna Arline Felton was born in Salinas, California, on July 20, 1890. Horace Wilcox Felton, a doctor, died a short time before her ninth birthday. Clara Winder Felton (née Lawrence), Felton's mother, discovered that although her husband had a large medical practice in San Jose, there were no records of his patients' payments for care and no cash in the office. Felton had participated in a local benefit for victims of the Galveston Flooding just weeks before her father's death. The attraction of a road show company that was playing in San Jose at the time caught her singing and dancing. Felton's mother told him that the manager was able to give him a job with his company. Since the family was going through difficult financial times as a result of Felton's father's death, her mother contacted the road show manager. Felton jumped straight into the cast of the show and is quickly raised in the company.
