On one of the S.S. forms I sent for I found some information I never expected. I discovered the man in question had been adopted by his stepfather and it listed the name of his birth father. In this case I also found the mother's maiden name which I had not known before. When parents or even grandparents have been married more than once, the information gained here may not be so easily available anywhere else.

Thanks for the input, my father was adopted also. I will send for his SS# application and see if he put information I don't have.
