At a complete loss, weeks of research has not turned up anything. Her parents I believe divorced as I have found her father death and burial with a second wife and on his 1930 census he is listed as single. I have found no further information on Lorraine. Found her today by accident when researching her father she goes by the name Jean I assume it may be her middle name. She seems to have spent time with both parents. Nothing after 1940 to date.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Jean by comparing test results with other carriers of her ancestors' mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Jean:
