Harold Cartman
Harold Cartman is the maternal grandfather of Eric Cartman. He was born in Fulton, Missouri on December 11, 1926. Harold is the son of Selina (née Onofre) and John Cartman. He was the first-born of seven children. His parents were teenagers when he was born, and his grandparents were even in their twenties and thirties, that is how young his parents had him. His mother was fourteen and his father was seventeen. Harold comes from a unique background. Harold's family name was originally Ashley, but his it was changed to Cartman in 1942 when Harold's father was irritated on how people were making fun of the surname.

Harold's paternal grandfather was Benedict Louis Ashley (the son of Joseph Louis Ashley and Sophronia O'Hara). Benedict was born in Montana. Joseph was born in Michigan, the son of James Walker Ashley and Isabella Louis. Sophronia was born in Wisconsin, the daughter of Charles Francis O'Hara, whose parents were Irish, and Frederica Devery Thorsen, whose parents were Danish.

Harold's paternal grandmother was Carrie Bridget Cotton (the daughter of William Albert Cotton and Delia Mae Logan). Carrie was born in Oklahoma, and she was of African American descent. William was the son of Henderson Boris Cotton and Reina Ruby. Delia was the daughter of Abraham Logan and Jane Sutton. Carrie's roots can be traced back to slavery, but unlike most African Americans, her ancestors were not enslaved by white people, but by Native Americans, the Chickasaw to be exact. William was born in 1881 while Delia was born in 1885, and they were both born in Indian Territory. In the 1830s the United States government, enforcing the Indian Removal Act, forcibly relocated the Five Civilized Tribes — the Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek and Seminole — from their homelands in Mississippi, Alabama and Florida into what would become Oklahoma territory. They traveled the infamous Trail of Tears at staggered intervals: Choctaw, in 1831; Seminole in 1832; Creek in 1834; Chickasaw in 1837; and Cherokee in 1838. All of Carrie's great-grandparents were born in Mississippi, and her ancestors were present during the Trail of Tears when they walked alongside their Indian masters after the US forced them to give up their country in the 1832 Treaty of Pontotoc Creek and move to Indian Territory (Oklahoma) during the era of Indian Removal in the 1830s. When slavery was abolished after the American Civil War, the Chickasaw Nation never abided by the treaty, and although the African slaves were given freedom, they were undocumented US citizens and were left without a country, not helped by the fact that the freedmen faced discrimination against the said Indian tribe and they were refused to be granted tribal citizenship. Despite this however, the Dawes Commission did offer a chance for former slaves to claim Chickasaw identity and earn some land. Carrie's ancestors traveled to Tishomingo, Oklahoma, the capital of Chickasaw nation, to enroll. They were successful and earned nearly 50 acres of land.

Harold's maternal grandfather was Peter Onofre (the son of Pedro Alonso Montemayor de la Onofre and Josefa Sebastiana Vázquez Hernández). Peter was born in Harlem, New York. Pedro was born in Río Piedras, Puerto Rico, the son of Miguel Marcos Onofre and Rafaela Montemayor de Garza. Josefa was born in Luquillo, Puerto Rico, the daughter of Juan José Hernández Muñoz and Mercedes Vázquez Soto.

Harold's maternal grandmother was Elizabeth Matilda Greenblatt (the daughter of Isaac Samuel Greenblatt and Mary "Mollie" DuBovis). Elizabeth was born in New Jersey. Isaac was born in New Jersey, the son of Austrian Jewish parents, Abraham Greenblatt, of Dürnstein, Krems-Land, and Sarah Steiner, of Karmelitermarkt, Karmeliterviertel, Leopoldstadt. Mary was born in New York, the daughter of Slovakian Jewish parents, Moses DuBovis, of Bratislava, and Zipporah Mildred Lichtblau, of Košice.

When Melvin was seven, his family moved to Columbus, Nebraska. He shortly became friends with a girl two grades above him, her name was Elizabeth Isabella "Betty" Pinkerton, whom he developed romantic feelings for. In May 1946, Betty gave birth to a son named Jimbo, and Melvin was the father. When Melvin's parents found out about of this, they moved back to Colorado as they did not want any bad publicity. Distraught after leaving Nebraska and not being able to care for his infant son, Melvin enlisted in the military shortly after his high school graduation. He also married a woman named Florence Lillian Ryland, on Christmas Eve in 1948. She gave birth to their first child, a son named Andrew, in 1949. Their second son Everette was born the following year in 1950. In 1953, twin girls Sharon and Crystal were born on December 16, 1953. Their daughter Kyla was born nine months later in September. As aforementioned, Melvin was enlisted in the military, and though he was rarely at home, he did take whatever time he had off with his family. About a month after Kyla's birth, Melvin went away to go fight in the Vietnam War. Melvin was stationed throughout various countries in East Asia, and he did return home for about a month when his colonel allowed certain soldiers to take a break as they were some of the better soldiers. Melvin returned home for about a good month before returning to Vietnam. In December 1956, Melvin was killed in action as his troops were outgunned by the opposing group. Florence was three months pregnant with their daughter Aileen at the time. Florence requested that Melvin's body be shipped back to America, where a funeral was held.

Florence Lillian Ryland
Florence Lillian Ryland was the maternal grandmother of Stan Marsh. She was also the sister of Eric Cartman's grandmother Mabel, so that would make Stan and Cartman both paternal first cousins and maternal second cousins. Florence was born on August 14, 1929 in Wichita, Kansas to Byrd Worthington Ryland, age 30, and Florence Lorraine Davis, age 27. Both of her parents were born in Kansas and married in Caldwell, Kansas in 1915. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, Florence's father joined the United States Army, while her mother continued to work as an historian. Following her high school graduation, Florence attended Stanford University. While a sophomore, Florence met teenager Melvin Kimble, who was visiting the school. Florence and Melvin were married on April 17, 1949, when Florence was five months pregnant. Florence gave birth to her first child, a son named Everette on August 1, 1949, in between her sophomore and junior years. Florence quit school so she and Melvin could plant roots for a family. They both moved back to Colorado. In December 1956, Melvin was killed in action. Florence gave birth to their daughter Aileen on June 16, 1957. Now a widow, Florence returned to get a proper education and finished getting her degree, sending her children to live with their grandparents for the time being. As Florence had already completed her first two years at Stanford, the college was nice enough to let her continue her studies where she left off. She graduated with a degree in microbiology in 1959. She also earned a teaching degree as well. She reunited with her children as soon as she graduated, and she also began putting her teaching degree to good use. The Kimble family relocated to Cheyenne, Wyoming.

In 1960, while working as a high school biology teacher, Florence met a man named Ghenghis Stoley (1937-1997). Ghenghis had been living in America for a about a year and a half, and he was from Hong Kong, and was fluent in Mandarin, Cantonese, Portuguese, and English. Ghenghis' original surname was Sī tuō lì.

They had three more children, Jia Stoley, born in 1964, Jennifer Elizabeth "Jenny" Stoley born in 1968, and Stanley Wilson Stoley, born in 1970. Ghenghis was a very loving step-father to Florence's children and taught them the other languages he knew, introduced them to Chinese cuisine, and even taught them martial arts. In Kyla's words Ghenghis could make "one hell of a chicken curry". After Jenny went off to college in 1986, Florence, Ghenghis, and Stanley moved to Colorado. Three years later Florence passed away of a sudden heart attack. Ghenghis was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1991 and committed suicide by a self-inflicted gunshot to the head in the early morning of October 29, 1997, about a week shy of his sixtieth birthday.
