Thanks jim1

You have the right one with correct birth and mother.  I am really trying to find out if she IS still alive - presumably as Karen S O Thomas, plus any family.

Many thanks

Thank you both and understood.

If Karen is alive, she would be in her 80's years old.  I should rephrase my search to discover whether there is any record of her death.

Was she a naturalized American?  I didn't see her in the SSDI.

SDDI? 

Karen became a naturalised US citizen in 1970's, resident in California (third Christian name O = Ogilvy and England birth date given at the time).

She was first married late teens and was rumoured to have had child(ren) but I have no further information….

Many thanks for your continued help.

Regards

Postscript:

Karen was married in 1950's (-> L) but divorced in 1960's.  In 1970's, her surname may still have been L, but she may have reverted to her maiden name, P.  Although she was Fearing at the time of her first marriage, it is unlikely that she reverted to that....  She wasn't Thomas at that stage.  At her second marriage she was recorded as both L and P before becoming T.  She could have remained as T after this second marriage in 1970's - depending whether she divorced again!

Her mother, Ancell, was married three times (at least) being nee Larg -> Pratt, Cowdie, Fearing...

Regards
