[APG Public List] Death certificate in Tennessee

[todd white]

Julia, 

I did not know that about the laws of naturalization. Thanks for the tip. 

To all, 

I did end up paying for the death certificate and someone was nice enough to pick it up for me. So soon I will be able to see it and hopefully it will have the answer I'm looking for. I understand it may not be the exact Irish name but it's a start. 

Thank you all who responded and have a great day, 

Todd

If she married in 1901 to a US citizen there would be no naturalization 
papers for her.  At that time, a women was automatically granted the 
citizenship of her husband.  This rule resulted in a number of female 
natural born US citizen losing their citizenship by marrying a non US 
citizen.

      Jack, 

You are exactly right. Yes it is Mary F. 
        that I am attempting to find the maiden name for. A later census shows 
        her immigration to the US as 1892 which makes more sense because her 
        daughter Ruth was born in 1904. 

I am wondering if she came over 
        in 1892 and was naturalized in 1913. Regardless, I cannot find her 
        naturalization records. That is why I was attempting to find Ruth's 
        death certificate. 

Ugh, 

Thank you though!

          Todd,
           
          A quick look online shows a 
          family file with a Ruth Agnes Cloud, born 1904 marrying a 
          man named Herman L. Biggs. This lady reportedly died in Tennessee 
          on 5 January 1954.  When I ran a search on the site that Tina 
          provided a link to, I found Ruth C. Biggs, died in Davidson County, 
          Tennessee, on 5 January 1954.  My bet would be that the C is 
          for Cloud.
           
          This same Ruth A. Cloud  may be the 
          Ruth Cloud who shows up in the household of Charles E. Cloud and Mary 
          F. [?] on the 1920 U.S. Census of Lavaca County, Texas.  If so, 
          the mother Mary F. is reported to have immigrated to the U.S. in 1913 
          and to have been naturalized - if this is the right family, perhaps 
          you can find the naturalization record. That almost certainly would 
          give you her maiden name.
           
          Good hunting.

                Tina, 

Thank you for your help. I did 
                  check out the Tennessee website you suggested. However, she 
                  was not listed. My client's grandmother, Ruth Agnes Cloud died 
                  January 5, 1954 in Nashville, Davidson, Tennessee. Yet a 
                  record of her death cannot be found. 

I cannot 
                  understand how someone born as late as 1904, and dies in 1954 
                  cannot be found. However, that is the case. Of course my first 
                  thought is that she must be listed under a different name, but 
                  I would think my client would know an alternate name for her. 
                  

I'll keep looking. Thanks again for your help though,
