Title: U.S. Social Security Death Index (SSDI) Page: https://www.myheritage.com/research/record-10002-50950048/richard-t-koscik-in-us-social-security-death-index-ssdi https://www.myheritage.com/research/record-10002-50950048/richard-t-koscik-in-us-social-security-death-index-ssdi Publication: MyHeritage Text: Begun in 1935 by the Social Security Act signed into law by FDR, more than thirty million Americans were registered for the economic security sanctions by 1937. From 1937 to 1940, payments were made in one-lump sums amounts with the first amount being seventeen cents. Following amendments in 1939, the payments turned into monthly benefits and increased. Following further amendments in 1950, cost-of-living increases were awarded to those who were receiving benefits. From 1950 to the present, benefits have increased yearly in response to inflation concerning the costs of living.

Title: U.S. Social Security Applications and Claims, 1936-2007 Page: https://www.myheritage.com/research/record-10863-37094943/richard-theodore-koscik-in-us-social-security-applications-claims https://www.myheritage.com/research/record-10863-37094943/richard-theodore-koscik-in-us-social-security-applications-claims Publication: MyHeritage Text: Starting in 1936 the Social Security Administration started to maintain records of each individual who applied for a Social Security Number. The earliest form of these records were known as the “Master Files of the Social Security (SSN) Holders and SSN Applications”. This was more commonly known simply as the “Enumeration System”. In the 1970s legacy records from this system were migrated and new records were maintained electronically in the Numerical Identification System (NUMIDENT). This collection contains records of individuals with a verified death between 1936 and 2007 or who would have been over 110 years old by December 31, 2007. There are three types of entries in NUMIDENT: applications (SS-5), claims, and death entries. The records of applications and claims are presented here in this collection. The death entries are available on MyHeritage as the U.S. Social Security Death Index (SSDI). The application (SS-5) records contain information extracted from the SS-5 form “Application for a Social Security Card” or “Application for Social Security Account Number.” Information in the NUMIDENT application entries include applicant’s full name, father’s name, mother’s maiden name, sex, race/ethnic description, place of birth, and other information about the application and subsequent changes to the applicant’s record - such as name changes especially common (and even required) when women marry. For about 43 percent of social security numbers, there are multiple application records. The application records preserved by the Social Security Administration do not include records of all social security applications between 1936 and 2007. Information of applications prior to 1973 may be incomplete. There may not be a record for an individual in both the application records and the death entries and there are nearly 6 million social security numbers in the application records that do not appear in the death entries. And conversely, there are records in the death entries that have no corresponding extant record in the application entries. The claim records include information on the type of claim, the claimant’s full name, date of birth, gender, and for about half of the claim records the US state or country of birth. For a small number of social security numbers there are multiple claim records. Records in this collection may have place names that were abbreviated or personal names that were truncated in the data supplied by the Social Security Administration. MyHeritage has corrected and expanded many of these when possible but other values remain abbreviated or truncated.

Title: U.S. City Directories Page: https://www.myheritage.com/research/record-10705-397932749/richard-h-usaf-koscik-in-us-city-directories https://www.myheritage.com/research/record-10705-397932749/richard-h-usaf-koscik-in-us-city-directories Publication: MyHeritage Text: The consolidated records in this collection often tell a wider story about a person: They allow a researcher to learn when a person married or divorced, and in some cases deduce when the head of the household or their spouse died. They also help track changes in workplace or occupation and reveal when a person moved from one location to another. City directories, like census records, contain information that helps genealogists establish residences, occupations, and relationships between individuals. The added benefit of city directories is that they were published annually in many cities and towns throughout the United States. MyHeritage corrected errors in the original Optical Character Recognition (OCR) scans of the directory pages, and then employed several advanced technologies, including Record Extraction, Name Entity Recognition, and Conditional Random Fields to parse the data, and correct errors in the original OCR output of the directory pages. Training a machine learning model how to parse raw free-text records into names, occupations, and addresses enabled the production of a structured, searchable index of valuable historical information. Optical Character Recognition may introduce mistakes in some records, and the use of machine learning to parse these records may create mistakes as well. Therefore, as with any genealogical record, users are encouraged to consult the original images and fix any mistakes they may find when extracting information into their family trees. The records in this collection date back to the 1800s and are an excellent resource for creating a more informed picture of family life during the intervening years between censuses. Of particular note is the strength of city directories in filling in the genealogical gap caused by the destruction of almost all of the 1890 U.S. Federal Census schedules. The 20-year period between the 1880 Census and the 1900 Census has long been a challenge in family history research, and city directories on MyHeritage from this period serve as an important census substitute. City directories were first published in the U.S. in 1785, with directories from Philadelphia, New York City, Boston, and Baltimore being published before the end of the 18th century. The popularity of these directories increased tremendously in the 19th century and reached their zenith during the latter part of the 20th century. Publishers of these directories employed local residents to canvas these cities and towns regularly to collect and update the data they included in their publications. The information collected varies somewhat by year and publisher as practices evolved. For example, by the start of the 20th century, it was common to find the names of deceased spouses listed. Some publishers even collected and published the names of recently deceased residents with their age at death and full death date. City directories were most commonly published under the name of a primary city but often contain the same information for nearby smaller cities and towns. This collection will be updated soon to include pre-1860 directories as well as a large and unique set of directories published after 1960.
