Death record or obit Ruth Eldridge 4/7/1935

Classification: Query
I have just found this relative after searching for her for 3 to 4 years.(Found her on a deed in MA when some property was sold - she is my grandfather's sister).
Is there anyplace online to find obit or death record? I don't want a copy of death cert. I just want to make sure I have the right person.
She is on the 1920 Census for NY, widowed, as a secretary to a Robert Scott. She has a son, Robert 3, if you look at record it has parenthesis around her and Robert making it look as tho he is her son rather than son to head of household. I assumed his last name was Eldridge because there is a dash under her last name on his entry but on the 1930 Census it looks like they have moved and the son's last name is Scott - so either she married and didn't have any kids, then have one with the man she was a secretary to or he adopted her son - confusing! I'ld like to find out this information too - who was she married to? is the son from that marriage? or is he the son of the man she was secretary to in 1920?
Alot of questions - sorry!
