Gina,
If she died in Ohio, her death cert may be available on line. If you give me her married name and year of death, I would be able to see if her cert is available. Be aware that death ceerts are only as good as the info provided by the informant. If she lived alone or at a rooming house etc., you will often find parents names and place of birth as unknown.
I have been to the archives in Warren, and Emily and her staff are very helpful, but I now live in Oklahoma......
