My mother told us that her mother's name was Mary K. McCann and that she died in childbirth. We can find no record of this at all and are wondering if it is true or not. My mother says she was in a Catholic orphanage until her Aunt (Angelina)took her out and raised her. This is a long shot, but we've tried all we know to find her and so far have failed.
