Aha, I just found the problem with the social security ancestry database. The person I searched for was recorded in the database using her middle name, which she went by, instead of her real first name. I wonder how that could have happened. Nowadays you must show a birth certificate or passport or some such thing to sign up for a social security number. Maybe years ago, when she signed up for an SS number, you just gave whatever name (even a nickname) that you liked? Anyway, this experience makes me wonder how common this might be, and whether Gregory Writer Sr. might have also appeared in the SS rolls under a slightly different name. Then again, maybe the person named Gregory Writer who owes all those taxes isn't really dead ...
