I am helping my cousin try to get all of her information together for her Degree of Indian Blood Card. She is having a hard time because her Dad's Middle name is wrong on her Birth Cert. My question is, did they have to have a birth certificate in the 40's to get their Soc. Sec. card? Even though my Dad has a delayed Birth. Cert. they can find no record of my Uncle's. Also, I noticed that 80% of the Army records for 1912-1960 were burned in a fire in 1973 if we have problems getting Military Records any other ideas. Thanks !!! Sharon Beamer Oregon
