You are searching for information about your grandmother. What research have you done in the U.S.A. [the first place to start your research]. Was your Grandfather a Canadian or an American? If American - working in Canada - do you know where ? This would give you a lead in finding the place of marriage. Your grandmother died in childbirth in 1905. Have you searched for and obtained the Birth Registration [long form birth certificate for the child -certificate issued even if the child was stillborn]. Were there other children born? Have you obtained their birth registrations - long form birth certificate.? Have you searched for and obtained the Death Registration for your grandmother ,deceased in 1905? {The long form registration - should show her date and place of birth, names of parents etc - all depends on the knowledge of the informant - her husband should have at least some very basic facts]. Have you searched to see if there was an obituary published. Obits can be very basic - or - quite informative. naming family members - siblings etc and their locations. Have you searched for - a Border Crossing Record - this will have information about everyone crossing from Canada to the U.S.A. - check with the Latter Day Saints - or State Archive - or National Archive in Washington D.C. Property records - may show your grandmothers name. Hospital records - may still be archived - you may be able to gain access to same - site freedom of information. Funeral Home/ Cemetery Records - may be of some help. Funeral Homes usually take the personal information about the deceased. In Canada - a search of the 1901 Census - but one needs to know a location. In the U.S.A. - a search of the Census. 1900 - just in case the family was already in Kansas at that time. Wishing you much luck with your research Cheers, Stella
