This following comes another site at the Guatemala Genealogy Forum:
You would have to know your relative´s exact place of birth. Guatemala is divided into 22 departments (like states), so you´d have to know which one, and then which municipality (municipio, like counties). With that info, her year of birth and her father's name, you could request a copy of her birth certificate at that locality's Civil Register, or Registro Civil.If she was born in Guatemala City, you would go to the Registro Civil in that city.Unfortunatelly, you need more information than just a name.
As far as the last name of GRACE WILHELMINA ADELHIDE GOSS D'ALDO MARINO is concerned, it guess her father's last name was Goss and her mother's maiden name D'Aldo Marino (?).It is customary in latin countries to use the mother's maiden name after the last name.Is Goss a German name?
