Question:

Can anyone give any information on Ruth Greenhoe who was married to Leonard (Len) Greenhoe? She once lived in

Ionia Mi & had a child named Mickey (don't know given name) who was born sometime in the 1940's.

one lady by that name was b. 02 Sep 1920 and died Feb 1991. It doesn't say where. Michigan, Arizona and Florida are good guesses.

This is another Ruth Greenhoe in Michigan; note the obituary is dated 1999, eight years AFTER the Ruth above died, yet it says Mrs. Leinweber is survived by her sister, Ruth Greenhoe.

Obituary from the Clare County Cleaver, Harrison, Mich. December 23, 1999

==============================...
If the two women are the same, it will not be the first time an obituary has been wrong. There was one Ruth Greenhoe living in Bay City in 1999, maybe.

has 5 people named Greenhoe living in Bay City MI with listed normal phones (not cells). You could call all of them in 15 minutes for $1.50, at 3 minutes per call and 10 cents a minute. If you dod (I did this once for a different surname in a different county), make sure you tell them some things right off the bat:

1) They don't know you
2) You are not asking for money
3) You are not selling anything
4) You know the call will be odd, especially if they have never dabbled in Genealogy
5) You'll take "MYOB" for a complete answer and stop bothering them, if they are uncomfortable
6) Why you are calling.

It sounds like you are either looking for cousins, or have begun to dabble and hit a dead end, or are looking for a bio parent, but you didn't say.
