Do you have a copy of an old tax return? Her SSN will be on it.

you can always file form 4506 to get a copy of your prior year return for a fee. it takes about 2.5 months to process

You may also have other paperwork with the SSNs, such as loan documents/applications for home mortgage, car loan, etc.   Or perhaps insurance papers or applications, joint bank account applications, etc. would have them.  If you have a joint bank account with an online account, you may be able to see the SSNs under the account details or profile section in the online account.
