I am looking for any information on Irene Mary Ruskauff, my grandmother. I know she died in 1950 in Wisconsin, but can find out any other info about her. She divorced my grandfather, Virgil Tiffany about 1938. I need to find out if she remarried before her death. I can't find her death certificate or any social security information. Any help would be appreciated.
