Notes for Ida Florence Foster
The SSDI lists Ida Ramey, born 16 Mar 1908, died 29 Nov 1993, last residence Morehead, Rowan Co., Ky, SSN issued in Kentucky before 1951.
The Kentucky death index lists Ida F. Ramey, age 85, died 29 Nov 1993 in Farmers, Ky, residence Wolfe Co. It also lists the same death in Wolfe Co., residence Rowan Co. (The Ky death index has thousands of records with this sort of inconsistent duplication, where one index entry will have two different counties in the residence and death place, and the other index entry will have as the death place a town from the county listed as the residence on the other index entry, and will list as the residence the county that the other index entry listed as the death place. Unfortunately I do not know whether the location given with a town is really the death place, or really the residence.)
