Answer by Future Librarian of America
There simply isn't enough information provided in order to begin tracking the information you are seeking. You can begin by seeking the following information:
1. When did she die?
The month, date and year. If none of your relatives know this, you can always get a copy of her death certificate (to get this you need to know which state she died).
Index to where to get vital records by state:
http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/howto/w2w/w2welcom.htm
There generally is a charge for death records.
2. Where did she die?
The state and the city or the general area. This is particularly helpful for searching through local newspapers for articles around the date of her death.
Once you have this information, search through local newspaper archives. Your best bet will be to go through the local library. First, you can try your local library and see if they have access to newspaper databases. Then, you can try contacting a library located where your aunt's died. If they don't have the local papers accessible online, they may have records on microfiche. A reference librarian at the local library would be happy to assist you to towards the right direction for tracking the information you're looking for.
Although there is a great deal of public information accessible on the Internet. There is also a great deal of information within closed databases (requiring a subscription and password) or material which not yet available digitally.
Good luck.
