I have a Elizabeth Murray who emigrated to USA , but things don't add up and I'm wondering if I have the right Elizabeth Murray

I need some one to get her death certificate up and see if it has her mothers name she died 19th Oct 1961 in Philadelphia Pennsylvannia USA

Philadelphia Death Certificates 1906-1967 her married name was Murphy

some one on ancestry has got it but with not having worldwide I can't see it

Thank you

Maddie

Thank you It does make it awkward when you don't have worldwide I don't think I need it until some thing like this turns up
Their seemed to be 2 Marion Murray's and 2 Elizabeth Murray born about the same time in Dundee
Elizabeth travelled back to USA in 1923 and it says she stayed with her sister Marion Wilson Brown, when I looked for the birth of Marion their was 2 Marion Murray and Marion Wilson Murray both fathers where Alexander mothers were Margaret Jolly and Mary Laughan

But this I think has sorted it out?? at least this is the right Elizabeth
