If you are looking for living relatives -Rootschat has a strict no living persons policy so their names cannot be given here

Would suggest you look for an obituary for her to get the names of any children etc

Given the reference to genealogy - have you looked for a family tree on Ancestry?

the son is still in the town he was living in when his mother died. Her sister Lorena Bobb died in 2008.

here is something posted by someone in 2012, citing Rowena King as a source for the information. It mentions a McCaffrey/McCaffry family. maybe you will see some familiar names there. The post is tagged Jay, McCaffry if you look at the bottom. I suspect the person posting it is linked to the email address at the top of the post. You could contact them too.

the tags won't help, that is the only post on the site tagged Jay or McCaffry.

There are a lot of trees on ancestry with Rowena King in them. I looked at two and didn't see a Jay, McCaffry/McCaffrey, or a Chalmers in them. But that doesn't prove anything. If I had found one of those names, then I could have tried to figure out how she was related to them.

How is Rowena related? i.e., does the DNA say she is 3rd, 6th cousin?  That info would tell you how far back you need to look.
