How do you find an old insurance company named Life Insurance Company of America located in Fort Worth TX in the 1940s?

Before an insurance company can sell insurance in a certain state, it must register with the State Dept of Insurance. If the company is sold, then it must notify the Dept of who it was sold to. If it just closes down, its policies were likely sold to another company, the Dept will have to be notified of that as well. Contact the TXDept of Insurance and inquire there.
