Narrative

Note: Researching Roma N. Welch

On Roma's birth record, her date of birth is given as 18 Aug 1907, while on her US Social Security Death Index record the birthdate is given as 16 Aug 1907; I am unable to inspect either original record visually, so I am uncertain as to which date is correct. I have not found other reference that contains her birthdate at this point.

After the 1920 US Census listing for her parents' household, the next reference I can find for her is mention in her father's obituary as "Mrs. Walter Nichols of Philadelphia," though I have not found a marriage record for her, nor any census records of her with a husband. By the time of her mother's death in 1974, she was named only as a surviving daughter, Roma, of Lima, Allen Cty, Ohio. Roma's Ohio Death record in 1977 gives her marital status as divorced, and her name as Roma Welch (as does her US Social Security Death Index record).

I have not identified a burial site for Roma, nor any information about her marriage or husband. I also have not determined whether she had any children.
