I am hoping that you all are able to see these articles regarding Geraldine, and her daughter Ana Rose Morlan. Ana Rose committed suicide when she was facing felony counts of fraud. All the articles I can find are behind paywalls, so I will try to get around that. Geraldine is still missing.

Ana Morlan

<<A 58-year-old Ladysmith woman accused of misusing $33,500 of her mother’s Social Security payments has apparently committed suicide, according to the Ladysmith Police Department.
Police Chief Allen Lobermeier said his department received a call on Wednesday from an adult woman who had received a package of items in the mail from Ana Rose Morlan.
“The contents of the documents raised some concerns for the welfare of Morlan,” Lobermeier wrote in a news release Friday. “Officers responded to 711 Miner Ave. E. in the city of Ladysmith to check on Morlan’s welfare. Upon entry of the residence, Morlan was found deceased due to an apparent suicide.”

No foul play is suspected, he said.
Morlan’s mother, Geraldine Morlan, is missing. Ana Morlan told police that Geraldine, 76, left on May 30, 2011, with two unknown women in their 30s, possible relatives of Geraldine, and said she has not heard from her mother since.



Contacts with the few known Morlan relatives have yielded little. Police officials have publicly stated they doubted Ana Morlan’s story about how her mother went missing.
Before her death, Ana Morlan faced felony counts of fraud against a financial institution and theft of movable property, which have a maximum combined penalty of 10 years in prison. She had told police she was previously given permission to use Geraldine’s retirement benefits but admitted that she was not supposed to be using those benefits for personal use, according to court records.
U.S. Social Security Administration officials said they paid out $33,526 to Geraldine Morlan between June 2011 and June 2015. Ana and Geraldine had joint access to the account, but only Ana used those funds during that time frame.
Earlier this year, when authorities searched the home the Morlans shared, health officials restricted Ana from returning to her residence where authorities reportedly found more than 200 dead cats, 30 live cats and mounds of refuse. A cadaver dog found only cat remains in and near the residence.

By the way, if you are trying to match her, make sure you look in Illinois too, that's where the daughter said relatives took her.
