Bob Thanks for the tips. Maybe I will try for her Social Security application and see what happens there. I've had good luck with death certificates though. Yes, this indeed is her information so maybe I should consult Carbon County. Thanks again!

Her Death certificate would be filed in the County where she died, not necessarily the county where SSA has her last residence. At age 101 she was probably living in an assisted residence and the last residence address could have been the address of her child, grandchild or guardian. My wife's aunt lived in Queens NYC, died in Manhattan , NYC but the SSDI has her last residence as our address. My wife was administratrix and changed the aunt's address after death. bob gillis Mark and Trina Galauner wrote: >Bob > >Thanks for the tips.

Beginning in 1906, the state has kept birth and death registration in a central location. You will not find them at the county level, except for what are called "Delayed Birth Registration," which was for the purposes of signing on for Social Security. Therefore, if you wish to obtain a copy of a birth or death registration, you need to apply to the state office: http://www.dsf.health.state.pa.us/health/cwp/view.asp?a=168&Q=229939&healthRNavrad3439C=|# It's important to read their requirements in order to order copies of records.

I suggest finding Dziedzics that live in PA (there are 48) using say Switchboard and find any that live in Carbon County and write them to see if they are relatives. If you know the married surnames of any daughters look them up also. bob gillis Mark and Trina Galauner wrote: >Bob > >Thanks for the tips.
