This is going to be a difficult one. If you are talking about her life insurance, you will have to do more scouring through her financial records.
There is no one central repository that contains the name of every policyholder and every policy. Insureds are one their own to manage their policies properly and to provide proof to the insurer when a claim needs to be made.
That's why companies always send you the policy and tell you to keep it in a safe place.
You should first contact her bank and ask them to check her records to see if she owns a safe deposit box that you were unaware of. If she does, you might be able to discover the policy inside once you get access to it (which itself is tricky because without a will that will likely have to go through probate).
If you can't find a policy, you are going to have to try to track the money down somewhere. At some point, she would have had to pay premiums through checks and or credit card statements. You'll need to scour those to see if any names pop out.
Also, try to contact the companies that sold her auto and homeowner's insurance. Many of those companies also bundle life insurance so there's a chance they could have had those policies as well.

Usually a Insurance company auto drafts the premium on a monthly basis or billed annually, semi-annually, or quarterly if you can find your mothers bank statements the name of the insurance company should be on that or if she paid by check you would need to find her canceled checks her bank might be able to help you locate the insurance company as well as long as someone has control over her accounts in the event of her death I am sorry for your loss and I hope this helps.

What kind of insurance? Check with the bank if she had a mortgage. There would be a copy of insurance with the bank. She may have same agent for all of her insurance.

Go through her checking statements for the past year, and her cancelled checks, and look for any insurance company payments.

Call around to your local insurance brokers who might have worked with your mother.
