If you haven't already verified through a lookup in the CA Death index the
date and county location of death, that should be your first step.....early
death certificates in CA do tell you the names of parents and where they
were born and if there is a spouse....also gives an informant's name and
address and the burial location and undertaker used....an obituary would
give you the kids names....
have you done any census work to establish his presence in San Joaquin 1900,
1910 and the remaining family members in 1920?

Census soundex rolls can be ordered at your public library or thru an LDS
FHC......I've cc'd a volunteer who can check CADI for the exact date of
death and county location.....you can then order the dc from the county for
the details included on it; death certificates were standardized in 1905
statewide so if the informant knew the information it should include the
parent's names and birthplaces etc. as listed above
