I don't think you will have much luck with this one.

She could have married at anytime after 1934 but looking for a marriage would be a nightmare with a name like Ethel Smith!

Same for deaths, even if she never married I can imagine there are hundreds of Ethel Smiths and how on earth would you be able to ascertain which one was yours?

Try the Quick Search at the top of the page...you might find a match.

Put Ethel Smith into Quick Search...when the page comes up go to the form at the bottom of the list and put in 1915 as year of birth...there are two pages to check through...you never know you might just find her on somebody elses tree.
