You asked – “Have you guys found many SS5 cards for women in your trees?”

Yes indeed! Actually during my beginning stages with family research, a few of the early “how-to” books that I referred to often recommended ordering Form SS-5s. I probably ordered more for male ancestors than female ones. But I learned a lot about the females in my family when I did indeed! I discovered that I had an aunt and uncle that migrated from Texas to live and work in Harlem & Brooklyn, NY during the late 1930s until their deaths. My aunt worked at the Jeannette Hat Shop that was once located on Madison Ave in New York City. I don’t believe I would have ever learned those key facts about her if it had not been for me adding Form SS-5s in my research.

I haven’t ordered an SS-5 in quite some time because they went from $7 each back in the early 1990s to $10 and more in 2002. Were the copies you have featured here affordable? Let me know your thoughts; again, great post!
