END OF LIFE MYSTERY

At least 4 people contacted me trying to locate Maryo and her heirs regarding mineral rights on land in Oklahoma. They had investigated and could find no record of her death.

Recently Harwell Field Services contacted me, but I could provide no information beyond what I had on the website. They found Maryo had been living as Emma Reidt in court documents according to a probate document for Grady County, OK dated 21 Feb 2018. They kindly shared the document with me so I could have her death date.

Now the mystery, why was Maryo living under another name at the end of her life? The social security record has the correct death date, but the date of birth is different, making her older than she actually was. According to CA birth records, she was born 26 Oct 1934 in Tulare CA. Emma's DOB is 13 Sep 1926.

Maryo's place of residence was 1037 Saint Gertrude Pl, Santa Ana CA, which according to real estate records she owned and purchased around 1990. Her brother, Donald, at some point lived there as a renter. Then Emma C. Reidt is listed as the occupant as a renter. Her occupation was given as Machine Operators, Assemblers, and Inspectors Occupations. The home was sold 21 Dec 2009 according to real estate records. Maryo/Emma died less than one month later.

In the phone book white pages for Santa Ana she was listed as Emma Reidt.
