Donna, Would you have a family Bible with information in it? My grandad did not have a birth certificate either and got his SS (around 1960) by using his mother's family Bible. He was born in Ala. in the late 1800s. I now have this Bible. Do you have an old family Bible with birth dates and family names in it?
