- University of Nevada, Reno images of Josie Pearl by Gus Bundy. All the images are labeled "Josie Pearl - prospector-miner; Leonard Creek Ranch Road; 92 years old; August 1955". However, Phillip Earl indicates that she was born on December 19, 1873 which would have put her at age 82. Her headstone has her listed as being born on that date.
