I am looking for information on family tree. I am stuck on my Great Grandmother. I don't know if she was adopted, but I remember someone saying when I was young she grew up in a Catholic orphanage. I would like to find out about Missouri laws on people who have passed on years ago and family lines. Her name was Mary Elizabeth Wynn b. 07 JAN 1881 in St. Louis MO according to death records she died 22 DEC 1971 in Orange California. She had married in her mid 20's to a E. Cole I cannot see the name on my grandmothers birth certificate. I am going to try to send order her birth Certificate from the county for St. Louis to see if that gives me any clue to her birth parents. Any help out there?
