What was Jackie Robinson's mom name?

Mallie Robinson - was left by her husband and struggled to raise five children. After his father left, his mother decided to move the family out to California. Jackie was only sixteen months old. When they got to California, they lived with his mother's brother, Burton. Before they arrived at California, his mother had made arrangements to find other living conditions because Burton's house would be over-crowded, so Jackie's mother took a job washing and ironing clothes. There was not enough money from her job though, so she went to welfare for help. Welfare added to her salary which barely made enough to keep them alive. The family, at times, did not have enough food to eat, and his mother would bring home scraps from her job to feed them. '''His mother was a very busy person, and she always went to work before sunrise, and always returned from work late. When she was home, she was usually exhausted, but she still made the energy to help her kids and take care of them. One time, a girl in the neighborhood had run up to Jackie and called him the "N" word several times. He had retaliated by calling her "cracker". When he called her that, she went and told her father and he stormed out of the house. He and Jackie had a stone-throwing fight until the father's wife came out and took her husband inside. From then on, all the white people in the neighborhood signed a petition to get them thrown out of the neighborhood. Jackie's mother stood her ground and would not make anybody force them to leave.''' Source: http://www.mccsc.edu/~jcmslib/mlk/robinson/life.htm
