Cynthia, what about Rootsweb which is now part of Ancestry?  I go into that site itself and look at the SSN item and click on it and search for the SSN.  Except that my guys did not obtain the number because it did not exist or they were too old.   Alanna  --- On Tue, 12/1/09, Cynthia McDaniel <Ruhi19@cox.net> wrote: From: Cynthia McDaniel <Ruhi19@cox.net> Subject: Re: [MOSTFRAN] John Komar To: mostfran@rootsweb.com Date: Tuesday, December 1, 2009, 9:06 AM Hi Rick, You can look for her social security records to verify this information especially if you have her death date and location.  The biggest problem is finding this info without paying for it.  Check first at: http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp (the LDS Research site).  If it isn't there, then try to find it at a library with genealogy materials.  You could also check the Family History locations (i.e., Latter Day Saint genealogy physical sites). If that doesn't work, then you will need to pay for the info.  In that case, I would try Ancestry.com, not because it is the cheapest (because it isn't), but because it has excellent resources in addition to social security records, such as census records.  Cynthia McDaniel -----Original Message----- From: mostfran-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:mostfran-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Rick Sent: Sunday, November 15, 2009 9:56 PM To: MOSTFRAN@rootsweb.com Subject: [MOSTFRAN] For Don Yeager (Komar) Don.
