Hi Lori If she passed on the the US and you know what state this should be easy. Just request her death certificate all states have that service. If you know the month and year of her death the cost is about 5$. If not a 10 year search is about 28$. The death cerificate in most cases has her place of birth the name of her parents and her cause of death. Also Cemeteries can be helpful if know where she was buried. The url for all the states is listed in the following site. www.state.XX.us. If you ever need any help just email us. visit my family site http://www.dellarocchetta.com/ Ciao Steve Della Rocchetta Lori wrote: > I am looking for my Birth Mother "Rosealie Florenza".
