The Limestone Township woman who died early Thursday during a fire was identified as Shirley Auman, 59, of 683 Strick Road, according to Montour County Coroner Scott Lynn today.

Auman was unable to escape the mobile home owned by Robert Mauer when the fire broke out at 3 a.m. Thursday, according to officials.

State Police Fire Marshall Kirk Renn said today that the fire started in the left half of the home, but no further information such as cause and origin could be obtained due to the extent of damage.

He estimated the damage to be $50,000, but noted he wouldn't know for sure until the insurance company investigated the scene.

An autopsy was scheduled for Friday at the Lehigh Valley Hospital, Allentown. The results were not available.

Assisting the Washingtonville Fire Department were volunteers from Valley and Liberty townships, Milton, Warrior Run and Danville's East End.
