Georgia and Mr. Arnold had two children together, the second of whom was born in California in 1910. Since her husband married a second time in Utah in 1919 it's clear that he and Georgia had parted before then.
The costume worn by Georgia on this advertising placard looks like it dates from the early 1920s. Unfortunately I don't know where she was performing although it's likely to have been somewhere in Southern California.

Cousin Henry Thomas Warren left his home in Cass County, Texas, for California sometime after the 1920 U.S. Census and Georgia married him in Santa Ana in 1924 and she seems to have ended her singing career thereafter because she claims no occupation in the 1930 and 1940 U.S. Census records.*
She died in 1946 and is buried in Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale; he never remarried and eventually returned to Texas where he died in 1976.
*Henry was a street car conductor.

I too was married in Santa Ana!! Streetcar conductor was a bit like my grandfather's business of repairing and tuning pianos -- just kind of went away -- after the advent of radio and the depression, my grandfather's business was over. Likewise streetcar conductor after the tire and oil businesses removed the streetcars.
