I just figured out that sockaddr_storage is defined in bits/socket.h. 
There it says (around line 143):

[...]
/* Structure large enough to hold any socket address (with the historical
   exception of AF_UNIX).  We reserve 128 bytes.  */
#if ULONG_MAX > 0xffffffff
# define __ss_aligntype __uint64_t
#else
# define __ss_aligntype __uint32_t
#endif
#define _SS_SIZE        128
#define _SS_PADSIZE     (_SS_SIZE - (2 * sizeof (__ss_aligntype)))

struct sockaddr_storage
  {
    __SOCKADDR_COMMON (__ss_);  /* Address family, etc.  */
    __ss_aligntype __ss_align;  /* Force desired alignment.  */
    char __ss_padding[_SS_PADSIZE];
  };
[...]

No (obvious?) member ss_family, too.
