Help me find Ancestor

Question

I AM LOOKING FOR GRANDMOTHER Corrine Roseke, Schug can anyone help. Died in 1966 from Iowa mother of Larry John Roseke.

Answer 1

Where have you looked for her? I would look in the 1940 census on FamilySearch as a first step. Also, have you googled her?

Also, can her nearest living relative get her death certificate for you? One of her children would be able to have access; privacy restrictions can be quite hampering. I don't know how many years Iowa (assuming she died there) makes you wait but 50 years will come around in 2016, not that far away.

Look in the Social Security Death Index (on FamilySearch) and apply for her original application for Social Security (assuming she made one).

Here's some "how-to" videos you may find useful.

Answer 2

This record provides her birth date, do you know where she was born?  Is Schug a maiden name?
