Death Records Now

Her name is Lillian Tyler, born June 15 1918 in Kings, New York. She married Albert Pacini. Had some kids, two of them died. Only records I found of her were in 1920 when she lived with a huge family (unable to find out which Tyler was her parent after extensive researching…no birth record). No residence record after the 1920 NY record. And the only other two that I found were with her and her husband’s name on it for a death certificate of her two kids in a 5 year period. My aunt Carol (lillian and albert’s daughter) said she left her sibling in 1945 because of her depression from losing two kids. I have been searching everywhere (especially familysearch.com…very helpful) but can not seem to find anything else on her. Why isn’t she documented? Why can’t I find a birth certificate, a marriage certificate, a residence after 1920, anything? I really want to be able to help my aunt find out who her mom was and if she is still alive or not or where she died. If anyone can give me some advice or help me out or explain to me why she seems to disappear after 1920, it would be greatly appreciated. She is such a mystery to everyone in my aunts family and we all want to find out what happened or a little bit more about her. I thought everyone had to participate in the census? Why can’t I find anything else on her?
Thank you for answering! I really need some help.

There’s lots of reasons why you may not find someone in an online resource ranging from they don’t have the helpful record, the name is indexed so poorly it’s not searchable, they moved and you’re looking in the wrong location, the information on the record is wrong, or there’s some fact you don’t know (i.e. she remarried or somehow got listed under a stepfather’s name). It’s likely she is documented, you just can’t find the documents so far. There are some cases where a person is undocumented. Sometimes by choice, sometimes by the cruelties of life (i.e. died a Jane Doe), and often because the documents have been destroyed (i.e. courthouse fires).

You may find it helpful to go ahead and order a birth (& maybe marriage) record direct from the appropriate agency:

I wouldn’t try to order a death record until you can be certain she has died and what name she may have died with (i.e. remarried). Find A Grave may be helpful. There seems to be a couple possibilities with a maiden name Tyler born in 1918. For this site, spelling counts so try multiple variations.

The thing about phone books and address books is that they never truly contain the information that you need, at the time you need it the most. Take for example when you are hunting down a good dentist whose name you can very well remember, but whose address still remains a mystery to you. Or, if you are planning to have a grand reunion for your batch mates, no phone book or address book could give information about all your former classmates and friends.

Apart from these, there are plenty of other reasons for you to have to look for a person’s address. Such as in serious cases where another person has violated your right and has done you harm, and you would want to learn where you could find him.

There could also be a time wherein you really have to contact a long lost friend for a reason that is of a matter of life and death.

It is for these reasons that you have to learn about how you could use an address finder to your own advantage.

Basically, an address finder does what its name would suggest. Based on what you know about a person or an entity, an address finder can provide you its address as well as contact information. By searching through public records, you can search for any person or entity you have in mind and find where they are located in no time at all.

The internet has made searching for addresses easier. You can just type in the keywords in an address finder, which can include partial names of the person you are looking for. The problem with address finder facilities available today is that some are not complete and their database is still lacking in some areas. What you can do is to find a public records service that will truly serve your needs.

With an address finder, you will no longer have to worry about confidentiality issues and how much it is going to cost you. There are websites that offer free service, but you have to make sure that what you choose is reliable.

This kind of service is not only limited to physical locations. You can also search for email addresses of persons or entities that you would like to contact. Some people also use such feature to hide their addresses in case they do not want anyone looking for them to find a way to contact them.

However, when you have gone after a public records service that is just simply, not worth all your efforts, you might think that the service could not live up to its name. So if you really are that determined to find out someone’s address, you have to take your time to find a good public records service that could meet your expectations and provide you with what you need. An address finder could only do good for you when you at least try to find and avoid dealing with bogus public records service providers.
