Best Answer

Ration books were typically given to the "man of the house". Presumably, a person would have to be the age of maturity (18), but in some families where the father had died, older sons were presented with ration books even though they had not yet reached the age of maturity. (The prevailing attitude was that they would be more intelligent than their mothers.) It is worth noting that because one ration book was provided per house, if one person had received one, than nobody else in that house could, regardless of how old they were.
