Look up their name on the social security death records on Rootsweb. It should give you the address where their last check was mailed. 2. Call your local library and ask them if they have any old telephone books, and don't forget to ask if they have them on mircoflim. I used this aveune when I planned a class reunion. I knew the towns, but not the address. They had cross reference books on film. They have the individuals listed by name, address and telephone numbers. 3. Their death certificates should give you their address or that of the relative who was responsible for the information given. 4. The funeral home that handled the services for the family, should also have the address for the responsible party. 5. Try the utility companies. Even if they rented apartments or houses instead of owning one they would have had to pay for electric/gas and water and telephone services. 6. Do you remember what schools you and your siblings attended? The school board would have their addresses. Let us know if any of these suggestions work for you.
