I am looking for information on Betty Danner, daughter of Richard and Verna Milan of Kennewick, WA. I think that her husband's name was Thomas Danner. Both are apparently dead now and I cannot find any other contact info on this part of my family. Any info would be appreciated.

I looked at your other postings in an effort to find additional information on these people, without success. Your 8 postings indicate your new to genealogy research (or at least limited postings under this name).

When you post an inquiry, it is so important to provide specific information about the people you search, especially if they have common names. As an example, the Social Security Death Index has 21 Betty Danner. Betty, as a name is sometimes a nickname for Elizabeth

If you know their date of birth, that is great, even just a year, or approximate year. Such as, Betty graduated Kennewick High School in 1888. Do you know when and where she married?

With your indication "Both are apparently dead now", I did a search for Richard Milan with the "assumption" he "might" have been born prior to the 1930 Census. I find seven, none living in Washington or married to a Verna.

Now, I throw in a search using wild card, looking for ANY Rich* Mil* (where the * allows any letters following). In the Washington Death Index I find:

Richard A. MilaM (ends in "M"), died 27 July 1987 at age 75, residence was Kennewick.
Verna L. MilaM, died 27 June 1991 in Kennewick at age 79. SSN was 333-24-7861, issued in Illinois. She was born 13 Sep 1911.
--You can obtain obituaries for these two, which should identify a location for children:
The Washington State Library has a free research service, the ask-a-librarian program, where they will look for information in the archives, in this case the newspaper microfilm for an event, such as an obituary. They will look up to an hour and send you the results. Contact them at: http://www.secstate.wa.gov/library/ask.aspx .

The Tri-City Herald has several articles
April 20, 1955, Richard Lee Milam, a Pasco High School Senior (found to be the wrong person, wrong family)
Oct 14, 1956, Richard Lee marries Dorene Marie Williams of Richland. He son of A.C. Milam
Feb 7, 1957. Richard A. Milam gives a pint of blood.
Dec 5, 1965. Richard A. Milam, speeding, $24.00.
Feb 16, 1964. Verna Milam, guest at a luncheon.
May 7, 1952. Betty Milam, Pasco High School Grad.
--So, if correct person, born about 1934. Still young enough to be living.

Thanks for the info, Ron. Yes, the name is Milam instead of Milan. I have the obit for Verna and that's how I had Betty Danners info. That's all I know about her. She should have been born sometime in the 1930s but I don't have any proof. The Thomas and Betty Danner at the same address is how I arrived at his name, but the phone has been disconnected so I assume that they both are dead. Both Richard and Verna died in Kennewick. Verna had a Grandchild and two great-grandchildren but no names are listed so I'm at a dead end without more information.

MANY people have disconnected their land line telephones in favor of cell phones. A disconnected phone line does not mean someone is dead.
