Hi!

I am looking for ANY information on my great Aunt Ruth E. Yeager (Born abt. 1918. I cannot find a death date on her and ultimately, I would like to find out the cause of death. I've asked a few family members how she died and I think the older generations in my family are hiding something. I know that one story says she died of ovarian cancer (which I highly doubt because she was only in her early 30's) and another story I received from my mom was that she was raped and she had a botched abortion resulting in her death. I am simply looking for the truth. If anyone can direct me in where to go for the answers, or, if anyone knows any info, I would be very grateful. Here is the info on this ancestor:

Ruth E. Yeager
Born- Abt. 1918
Died- ? Perhaps in Northumberland County, PA until the 1940s
Where- Northumberland county, PA (Rush Twp.)?
Mother and Father- George H. Yeager and Esther (Shipe) Yeager
Siblings- Albert, William, Merlin, Preston Yeager
