Was Dorothy born in California or is that just her boys? Have you found her in the 1930 census or know about when she married - who were her parents? I haven't had much luck in finding Donald in the SSDI or death indexes (California or Florida), so he probably died fairly early on (possibly before the SSDI was in full swing). Do you have an address for her at any time while she was in California? Were there any other children mentioned in the obituary or just the one twin? One possibility for getting her husband's name would be to get ahold of her son's death certificate as that should ideally mention both parents. I hope this helps! Good luck, and take care!

Justina, Dorothy was born March 15, 1914 in Peru, Clinton County, NY to Josephine Ruth (Haar) and Arthur R. Weatherwax. I don't have any CA addresses although I know at one time when younger she lived in Alameda County. In the obit, a sister of the twins was mentioned. Her name is Marta Jean Ashe at the time (1984) she was living in Seal Rock, OR. No listing there now. I do not know where she was born or when, although I believe it was about 1945 - 1950 or so. Possible last name of Dorothy at the time of Marta's birth was Cleaver or Bossen. Aunt Dorothy was the "marrying kind" and had 6-7 husbands, although one or two were remarriages to former spouses so she's been hard to trace. Hopefully I can obtain an obit for David and that will tell me something more. Thanks again, all. I appreciate it more than I can say!!
