Shawn, Any information on this man would be greatly appreciated. I've come up against a wall. I know he was a miner and a musician with Joe Dupin and they made several records with RCA. No luck there either. Social Security will not help because I'm not a "legal" heir to be privy to that info. I do know he had two brothers Louie and Mike. One of them,Idon't know which one lived on Beatrice Ave in Johnstown, Pa. Came up cold on him also. None of us came on this earth alone but this man has escaped most of us.

Soc Sec dea index shows 2 Joseph Kisic; (1) 1918-2001 Beaver Co PA; (2) 1918-1970 Allegheny Co PA. Previously I have sent for "many" original SS applications (@5.00 ea) for a wealth of info. I was not even related to most of the ones I sent for: they were my grandson's maternal line. I was never refused access to any of the original applications. I understand the price has gone up to 27.00.

What is this thing about Social Security? Before the price went up, I ordered 50 SS#5 applications from Social Security and I was and am not related to most of the people I inquired about. I think this is a public record and available to anyone who has $27 ( now ) to pay for the search and zeroxing. Just go to Rootsweb and print out the letter that you get when you find someone who has a listed Social Security number. It says nothing about "you must be related to this individual to make an inquirey." From experience, you do NOT need to be related to make the inquiry. But no, I have not even ordered one more since the price went up. Ashley >Shawn, Any information on this man would be greatly appreciated. I've come >up against a wall.
