Name	Birth	Death	Last Residence	SSN	Issued	Post-em
Helen W STRAUB	26 Nov 1901	__ Mar 1993	17963 (Pine Grove, Schuylkill, PA)	166-03-3274	PA	Yes
Edith S FISHER	26 Sep 1919	16 Aug 2003 (V)	17963 (Pine Grove, Schuylkill, PA)	196-16-2812	PA	Yes
Helen KEESEY	18 May 1926	21 Sep 2001 (V)	17963 (Pine Grove, Schuylkill, PA)	171-22-4644	PA	Yes
John S KEESEY	05 Nov 1923	07 Apr 1998 (V)	17963 (Pine Grove, Schuylkill, PA)	191-24-0599	PA	Yes
(V) = (Verified) Report verified with a family member or someone acting on behalf of a family member.

There are several William REEDs in the database who might have been Helen's husband, with no way to be certain which one — assuming he lived long enough to even be picked up in the SSDI.  John S. KEESEY is the only KEESEY at the 17963 zip code who gives promise of having been Helen's husband, but confirmation is needed.  There were too many male FISHERs at the 17963 zip code who might have been Edith's husband to hazard a guess which one he might have been.
