ROOTSWEB ADDS JUNE 1999 SOCIAL SECURITY DEATH INDEX (SSDI).
Now you can access the most recent version of the SSDI at
RootsWeb <http://ssdi.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi>;.
Accessible fields include first and last names, date of birth,
month and year of death, last residence, last benefit, Social
Security Number, and the state where it was issued. You can
narrow a search to a particular state, country, city or zip
code, or to a particular date of birth or death, by using the
Advanced Search Feature.

When you find a record of interest, you can automatically
generate a printer ready letter to the Social Security
Administration requesting a photocopy of the actual application
for a Social Security Number (Form SS-5-Social Security Number
Record Third Party Request for Photocopy).

This new database, which is running on two new high-performance
servers, is another example of your contributions at work. The
more that you contribute, the more free genealogical data RootsWeb
can make available to the Internet community of genealogists.
