Hello. I have a Kathleen Langley, born in Galway, Ireland on March 8, 1898. She was living in New York since she arrived in the states in 1922, she was living with her sister Mary Langley, residing at 233East 81s st New york, New York When she died in May of 1971 she was in Europe. My question is, would Social Security know where in Europe she died, and if she was living there at the time of her death? One more stupid question, Where would I write to see if there was an Obit for her? Thank you. Best wishes. Bob

This is all assumption but, if she was collecting SSI checks, someone in the family or the funeral home would have informed the Social Security of her passing to stop the checks. Now if she was living in Europe/Ireland instead of just touring, her checks would have been going to her residence there. I know family in Ireland who had checks sent to them there. However, once the direct deposits started, they were sent to their account at Bank of Ireland. Again, if she was just vacationing, the obits would be in local paper in USA. Or, the local paper in Europe/Ireland where she resided at the time of her death, may have an article. You would contact them. Mary Ellen Chambers Lakewood, OH RTENNIHAN@aol.com wrote: Hello.
