Last Residence: 99302 Pasco, Franklin, Washington, United States of America
Born: 2 Nov 1937
Died: 6 Jan 2001
State (Year) SSN issued: Oregon (1955)
 
where was she living in the 1940 census? Might list some relatives.
 
Beckwith seems to be her married name. I haven't came across a marriage record yet to know what her maiden name was.
 
This is what I've found on this lady. But seem to have hit a brick wall, maybe one of you guys has an idea about what to do next.

I found an obit in the Tri city herald for Mrs. Ernest (Fay Lillie) Miller. Oct 2, 1973. It lists Mrs Forest (Elsie) Beckwith as her living daughter. It also lists sons Fred, Mac, William and Ernest Jr. and another daughter, Nellie for Mrs Miller. All of the children were listed as living in Pasco, WA except for William who was living in Weiser, Idaho.
I believe this to be our Unclaimed's mother.

Ok. So following the names that are listed in the obit, I found a Maxine Poore (Elsie's aunt's name) who, prior to her death in 2008, resided with a S. Poore in Anacortes, WA. I found a listing for someone with that name in Anacortes, WA. It also has a telephone number. I will email nemosmom with the info.
 
I contacted Ms. Poore, she gave me her ex husbands name and area where he is living. NM and I searched and are awaiting info to call this a match.
 
We do have a match awaiting call from nephew, Has been verified by ex.
