Do you know her married surname? If so, you can do a phone search for her by going to http://www.switchboard.com

Also, you might try the Social Security Administration, Office of Central
Records Operations, 300 N. Greene St., Room 11312, Tower Metro West, Baltimore, MD 21201.

It states, "Looking for a missing heir or long lost friend? The SSA letter-forwarding service will send a letter from you to the missing person providing the purpose of your search is either humanitarian (Locating an estranged family member or lost friend) or monetary (tracing a missing heir). The letter has to contain information that we determine the missing person wants to know. YOU HAVE TO PROVIDE THE PERSON'S DATE OF BIRTH, PARENTS NAMES, OR OTHER IDENTIFYING INFORMATION. The agency wont reveal the persons whereabouts or verify that the letter was received. It simply acts as the intermediary. There's no charge for humanitarian requests; other searches cost $3.00.

Good luck (and let us know what happened!)
Lynn
