Clifton Webb
Clifton Webb (November 19, 1889 – October 13, 1966) was an American actor, dancer, and singer known for his Oscar-nominated roles in such films as ''Laura'', ''The Razor's Edge'', and ''Sitting Pretty''.〔Regarding Webb's birthdate, although ''The New York Times'' states "Clifton Webb was born Webb Parmalee Hollenbeck, in Indianapolis, IN, in 1891 (his date of birth was falsified during his lifetime and pushed up by several years, and some sources list the real year as 1889)", the U.S. Census of 1900 gives his birth year as 1889. That date is also on his grave marker; see http://movies.nytimes.com/person/75151/Clifton-Webb/biography〕 In the theatrical world he was known for his appearances in the plays of Noël Coward, notably ''Blithe Spirit'', as well as career on Broadway in a number of very successful musical revues.
==Early life==
Webb was born Webb Parmelee Hollenbeck in Indianapolis, Indiana. He was the only child of Jacob Grant Hollenbeck (1867 – May 2, 1939), the ticket-clerk son of a grocer from an Indiana farming family, and his wife, the former Mabel A. Parmelee (a.k.a. "Parmalee" or "Parmallee"; March 24, 1869 – October 17, 1960), the daughter of David Parmelee, a railroad conductor. The couple married in Kankakee, Illinois on January 18, 1888, and separated in 1891, shortly after their son's birth.〔Illinois Marriage Collection, 1800–1941; www.ancestry.com, accessed September 25, 2010〕 According to Marion County, Indiana, Marriage Records, they married in Indianapolis on January 18, 1888. According to Illinois State Archives, they married on January 1, 1889. According to city directories of the period, all of Jacob and Mabel Hollenbeck's residences were in the heart of Indianapolis. In 1886 and 1887, Jacob G. Hollenbeck was at 40 Windsor Block. In 1888, he resided at 135 E. Vermont Street. In 1889 and 1890, Jacob and Mable lived at 305 N. Mississippi Street. In 1891, they lived at 74 W. New York Street. In 1892 and 1893, they lived at 229 N. Pennsylvania Street.
In 1892, Webb's mother, now called "Mabelle", moved to New York City with her beloved "little Webb", as she called him for the remainder of her life. She dismissed questions about her husband, Jacob, who, like her father, worked for the Indianapolis-St. Louis Railroad, by saying, ''"We never speak of him. He didn't care for the theatre."'' The couple apparently divorced, since by 1900, Mabelle was married to Green B. Raum, Jr. New York City's 1900 U.S. Census indicates Mabelle and her son were using the surname Raum and living on West 77th Street with Green Berry Raum, Jr., a copper-foundry worker, who gave his position in the household as Mabel's husband.〔Also living with them was Mabelle's mother, Grace S. Parmelee. Information from 1900 U.S. Federal Census viewed on ancestry.com, September 25, 2010. The 1910 U. S. Federal Census shows that Mabelle Hollenbeck and Green Raum had been married since 1897; he had formerly been married to Annie Iredell Rogers in 1890 (separated 1891, divorced 1894).〕 Raum was the son of General Green Berry Raum, former U.S. Commissioner of Internal Revenue and former U.S. Commissioner of Pensions. Webb's father, Jacob, married, as his second wife, Ethel Brown, and died in 1939.〔1910 U.S. Federal Census accessed on ancestry.com on September 25, 2010〕
According to the birth records, 1882–1889, of Marion County, Indiana, Book H-3, pg. 369, Clifton Webb was born in Indianapolis, Indiana on November 19, 1889. He was born at 305 Mississippi Street in Indianapolis. Some sources say Beech Grove, but this is not the case. Mississippi Street no longer exists. Its name was changed to Senate Avenue, which is on the near west side of Indianapolis. In Webb's autobiography (Published in July 2011) Webb states, "The house in Indianapolis where I was born and which I dimly remember ..." Webb's birthplace is listed as Indianapolis in The Internet Movie Data Base, Who's Who in America, the New York Times obituary (Oct. 13, 1966), The Indianapolis News obituary (October 14, 1966).
