If Michelena had or has one, you might know about it. Otherwise, consider looking at the Social Security Death Index http://ssdi.rootsweb.com which has five hits for women named Michelena born in the 1920s (I used a wild card on the Advanced Search: 192*) who were issued their Social Security card in Massachusetts. It would be expensive ($27.00 each) to obtain the names of their parents. To do so, click on "SS-5 Letter" on the right-hand side of each entry. Then print out the letter displayed on your screen (for each decedent) and mail it with the fee to the SSA. Reg Niles
