(Click on "Advanced" to have more fields!.)
If you find him, click on him, then on "SS-5"!. Print the letter that Roots Web formats for you!.

If you don't find him, pick someone else you can find, like John Smith, click on him, click on "SS-5", COPY the letter to "Word", change the name, date and SSN to your Mr!. Brock, print and mail!.

SSN Applications have father's name, mother's maiden name, birth date, birth place, plus address, occupation and employer at the time of application!. It isn't much of a family tree, but it is a start!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You can find a person's death and their last place of residence on the social security death index!. Two free sites have it, FamilySearch!.org and Rootsweb!.

That won't bring up their family tree!. There are family trees on those websites and many website, free and not free!. They are all subscriber submitted, by folks like you and me, not by experts working for the websites!. They are usually not documented or poorly documented!. You might see different information on the same people from different subscribers!. Then you will se repeatedly the same information on the same people from different subscribers, but that is no guarantee at all it is correct!. A lot of people copy without verifying!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm just beginning research on my family tree!. I'm finding repeated matches from different submitters also!.
It will take a lot of leg work, or let me state, I'm at the leg work stage, where I will need to go to library's, court houses to look up the actual documents that I need!.
I am finding websites that look like it contains needed information, but when you go there, it requires a membership!. I'm not sure the site will contain the correct information!. I will start my physical search!.
Good luck, and have fun!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You can't find the whole tree but you can get up one more generation!.

go to: http://ssa-custhelp!.ssa!.gov/cgi-bin/ssa!.!.!.!.

Select the question: how do I get copies of records for people found listed in the master death index!.
Near the bottom is the link for the SSA-711 form!. Send $27 and wait about 6 weeks!.
It's worth it as the parents names are listed, plus where they lived when they applied for a SSN!.

After that you can go to various sites where people have uploaded information:
www!.rootsweb!.com and go to their world tree
www!.gencircles!.com
www!.familysearch!.org
www!.ancestry!.com (subscription but worth it and just about all you need)
www!.usgenweb!.org
