I checked the Social Security Index and found nothing with that exact name.

The above could be your starting place to further investigate. Check State records.
Good luck !

Answer 3

again.. you need to include a country, and a possible time frame to learn if he may be living or dead.
These lead to looking in the right sources.

edit-
I am happy a poster found your gr pa, but her inclusion of personal info relating to living persons IS violation of yahoo policy/rules. And.. this board is entirely free.. not sure why other poster thinks this isn't.

Answer 4
