The SS-5 form is completed by an applicant to apply for Social Security.  This is a copy of the original SS-5 form I requested from the Social Security Administration for John Neufer.   The major data reflected here is:

Birth date - 5 August 1891

Father - Christopher Neufer (Nufer)

Mother - Anna Boger

Social Security Number

An example of his signature

His father's real name is Nufer.  John changed his name to Neufer.  We believe he was born in Russia before immigration.  Not in Hoisington, KS.
