This is information a lot of folks might like to know, so I'll write it out. I paid $27.00 for the original application, what looks to be about a half-page form. It contains the following information: At the top right, my grandfather's SSN# is stamped 1. Employee's Name: First, Middle, Last 2. Address: (my grandfather left this blank) 3. Post Office: City and State 4. Business Name of Present Employer: (mine was unreadable - the forms are typed, but the answers are handwritten) 5. Business Address of Present Employer: (mine was blank) 6. Age 7. Date of Birth: Month - Day - Year 8. Place of Birth 9. Father's Name, Regardless of Whether Living or Dead 10. Mother's Name, Regardless of Whether Living or Dead 11. Sex 12. Color: White - Negro - Other 13. Give date you became an employee (if you began employment after Nov. 24, 1936) 14. Have you filled out a card like this before? (If answer is 'yes' enter place and date of original filing and reasons for filing again) 15. Date Signed 16. Employee's Signature as Usuall Written - DO NOT PRINT) Donna "marthjeanp" <marthjeanp@msn.com> wrote: >Hello, > >I am seeking the parents of my relative as well.  Did you get the copy of >the original SS-5application or the abbreviated NUMIDENT printout?  Do you >know if both of these would have the parents names?  How much did you pay? >Please let me hear from you at marthjeanp@msnc.com > >Martha Jean Birdsong __________________________________________________________________ Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.
