Death Records Now

I’m stuck on my great-great grandfather on my family tree. i have his birth year, his death year, his social security number, and I know he was in world war one. Ohio (his birthplace) didn’t start keeping birth records until 1908 though. is there anyway I can find out the name of his father? He was born in Ohio, but lived & died in Wisconsin. I just want to be able to find his father’s name. I don’t really care about anything else.

His SSN application, $27, should have his father’s name and his mother’s maiden name. His death certificate might have them. His marriage record might have them. The article about his wedding in the local paper’s society pages, on microfilm in the library, may have them.

You could post his name, DOB and the places he was born in and lived in (town, COUNTY, state) here and someone might find him on the census. That isn’t as good as the SSN app, but it is free. It isn’t as good because if he lived with an uncle and called him "Dad" because his parents died when he was young, he might be on the census with relation "son" instead of "nephew".

I’m Searching for a Marriage between ?McCoy and Josephine Marie Hauser-Hessey She appears as Marie Josephine McCoy on her sons Robert Dickson Hessey World War One Draft Reg. She divorced Her first Husband Gerard Grant Hessey after 1910 she lived in Tacoma,Pierce County,Washington by 1918 and is married again to a ? McCoy but on the 1920 census she is listed as a Widow still living in Tacoma.Pierce co,Washington I have searched the Washington State Digital Archives she’s only listed with her first husband. No records after the 1930 census she is still living in tacoma,washington by herself I cant even find a death record for her I’m not even sure she is still in Washington I need help I’m stuck.
Josephine Marie Hauser of Marie Josephine Houser was born 1874 in Alton,Illinois
Grannytoad Frank McCoy is actually Frank Hessey apparantly her second husband adopted him and no its not him in Prison his father was born in Iowa and his mother in Illinois. But thanks for the Info.

Not sure if this will help much, but I think I found her death record in the Washington Death Index (1940-1996):

Marie McCoy, died 8 May 1944, age 72, Tacoma, cert # 718

You might consider contacting the Pierce County Genealogical Society to see if they can help you find the official marriage record:

Incidentally, my g-g-grandmother was a Houser: Sarah Catherine (1863-1925) born in DeKalb Co., Indiana, daughter of Adam. Most Houser/Hausers came from Pennsylvania. Bet we have a connection somewhere.
