Life
Maureen Patricia Arata appears in our family tree as a daughter of Peter Arata and Mary or Mae O’Connor. It give her birth as 30 November 1943 in Jersey City and her death as 4 August 2003 in Red Bank, New Jersey, but this archive contains no record that establishes those dates or relationships.
The searched New Jersey death dataset contains the name “ARATA, | MAUREEN,” but the quoted material does not provide a matching row with dates or a state file number. This archive treats duplicate family-tree entries as one unresolved person, not as evidence for two daughters. Her married surname, if any, is unknown.
How we know this: Weak: the identity and dates come from our family tree, and the death-data fragment does not establish a match. [1][2][3]

Historical context
These background articles explain the places, work, and events in this entry.
What we still don't know
- Independent confirmation of her birth and death
- Whether Mary Arata and Mae O’Connor were the same mother
- Her married surname, if any
- A record naming her parents
- Determine Maureen’s married surname from family papers or Peter/Mary’s obituaries, then rerun the exact birth/death dates in New Jersey and Social Security death sources.
- Keep this as one duplicate unresolved person, not a second daughter. Find Maureen’s married surname from a parent’s obituary or marriage record and search the death index under it.
- Confirm from a birth record or obituary whether mother Mary Arata and Mae O’Connor are the same woman; the unsupported Mae parent edge was removed without merging the profiles.
- [NEGATIVE, CONTROLLED — DID NOT DIE IN NEW JERSEY] Searched in the New Jersey state death index for 2001–2017 on 21 August 2026, across the death year and either side of it, and not found. The index is New-Jersey-only — it carries a state-of-death column and every row reads NJ — so this is evidence of where, not of whether. Controls: the same query shape returns the archive's own Margaret Mary Fitzgerald (file 20050035314, born 13 February 1920, died 31 May 2005) exactly, and the surname alone returns 21 rows. Finding 153.
