If I'm reading Dora's question properly, NEHGS will not have the information she seeks. Nor will the Boston Public Library. Someone will have to go to MA Vital Records to pull a post-1946 record. Searching the State index is the only feasible course, given that she's not sure in which of 5 Western MA counties the record may be. Dora did not mention whether she had tried the SSDI (Soc. Sec. Death Index) to find perhaps a clue as to death date and residence. That might bear fruit, and then someone in that county might be able to look into it.

Well, that's what I thought, but we'll see what they say.
