LUDWIG JEAN PAUL 02/17/1890 SALOME M REST (OTHER) SAN LUIS OBISPO 06/19/1981 045-26-8722 91 yrs
Searching the Social Security Death Index (linked from rootsweb) on that social security number only gives me this one entry:
UDWIG, JEAN 17 Feb 1890 Jun 1981 91 96816 (Honolulu, Honolulu, HI) 96816 (Honolulu, Honolulu, HI) Connecticut 045-26-8722
The social security numbers match in both, maybe it was a typo. I don't have any particular opinion other than Bill Ayers used identity theft when he was on the lam.
“Informational copies” of a death certificate can be purchased by any member of the public from the County Clerk of San Luis Obispo County, California (or via VitalChek Network online).
It is not necessary to state the full reason for your purchase, such as an inquiry into Obama, as inquiries are commonly approved for non-family members for other reasons such as “real estate title research”.
The current fee schedule asks $12.00 for copies ordered directly from the county (VitalChek may add transaction fees).

The San Luis Obispo Tribune may have also published a death notice or obituary sometime after June 19, 1980. This could be located at the main library in San Luis Obispo.
