	What was her maiden name and what year was she born? You might be able to find her in the Birth Index, and if she has siblings you might be able to cross-reference names with areas of the country.

Does it say her mothers name? On the death certificate, what is her date of birth? With that we can look on census maybe, and BMD index, also do you remember the names of any of her siblings?
