Therefor, I cannot see if there have been responses to your query---or if I am repeating advice already posted. Martyne L. CLIFFORD is on the Social Security Death Index. If you don't mind paying $27.00 to the U.S. government for a copy of the SS-5 form she filled out when she applied for her card, click on the following, which is a form letter to be used when requesting a copy : http://ssdi.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi?letter=y&lastname=CLIFFORD&firstname=MARTYNE&ssn=362-30-5210&birth=31+Jan+1931&death=10+Nov+2002&middlename=L&namesiffix= The SS-5 would contain the decedent's birthplace and names of parents. The names of her surviving relatives would be on things like obituary, will, and cemetery record. Reg Niles---I am no longer on this board.
