[Genealib] War Bride

[Berger, Camilla]

If her mother ever worked under social security, she might try to obtain her
application for a social security card or any other information that they
might have.    She can check the social security death index online.  Also,
she might try an obituary in the Chicago papers.  I assume that she already
has a death certificate.

Subject: [Genealib] War Bride



Hello, I hope someone can help with this question. I am helping a patron
whose mother was a WW II German war bride. He mother told her she came over
on a troop transport ship after the war with 1 or 2 small children. She
married a US soldier in Germany. His military records were apparently
destroyed in St. Louis so that avenue appears to be blocked. Her mother
lived in Chicago but never became a US citizen. Where can she go for
information about her mother?

 

Thank you very much for any suggestions.
