I have a number of questions for information that you didn't have in your posting that should aid in research. First, is there anyone available in your family that can fill in the blanks as far as information? Or correct information? Is Arline (Arlene) your mothers or fathers mother? Are they available to answer questions? Do they have any siblings that can answer? Any Grand Aunts or Uncles still alive? Do you have her obituary? Do you have their death certificates? Second, where did they live in Washington? (Washington State). 1. Arline (Arlene) Francis. "till she married" Do you know her married name? If not, what was your mother maiden name or fathers last name? Your grandmother would have been only 42 at death. Born in 1935, she would have been too young to be listed in the US Census of 1930. Do you know where she died? Where she was born? Try to get her obituary. 2. Frances Orr. Frances died in 1991, did you know her at all? Where did she live? Where did she die? I did searches in the census for Frances and Laura, without success. In the Social Security Death Index, I found a Joseph Orr, born 16 Feb 1904, Died Apr 1982 in Yakima, WA In the Washington Death Index, I found a Laura Armstrong, died in Yakima on 5 July 1988 at age 87, she resided in Selah. If you can ask immediate family for help, then expand out.
