I would like to research my mother's information. Anna Bertina Aldrich (Opperman, possibly after she left)

Hello moco123,

Thank you for posting your question on History Hub!

For general advice, we suggest reading the web page How to Begin Genealogical Research, the History Hub Blog Suggestions and Advice for Family History Researchers, and the FamilySearch Blog Beginning Genealogy: How to Get Started the Right Way.

Please see Resources for Genealogists for an overview of National Archives records commonly used for genealogical research. The most popular records for genealogy include military service records, military pension application records, census records, ship passenger arrival lists, and land entry records (for federal lands only). We also have passport applications (for certain time periods) and naturalization records. Naturalization records are held in the National Archives regional facilities. You can learn about visiting these facilities on our Visit Us webpage. 

Additional guidance and lists of resources are provided on the Archives Library Information Center Genealogy page, the FamilySearch Research Wiki, the Library of Congress pages on Frequently Asked Questions: Local History & Genealogy and Local History and Genealogy Research Guides, and the webpage of the National Genealogical Society.

The CDC's National Center for Health Statistics website tells how to obtain birth, death, marriage, and divorce records from state and territorial agencies. For more information and resources on vital records please visit our Vital Records webpage.

If you can provide more information about what that you already know, what you are seeking to learn, and where you have already searched, there may be persons in our community who are able to give more specific advice.

We hope this information has been helpful!

Thank you, is there any way to find out my mother's work history?

Do you know Mr. Opperman's name? and when they married? Or did she just change her name to Opperman for some reason? I'm asking because it is more likely that she worked before she was married.
