The Senate did not vote on the vital records bill yesterday. (HB100) They passed it over and did not vote on it. It still could come up for a vote before the sessions ends. To make your feelings known, contact the Senate: Out of State 502-564-8100 In Kentucky: 1-800-372-7181 You can leave a message for ALL Senators. If you do not live in Kentucky tell them that this bill affects your right to information about your family who died in Kentucky. Other states have solved the identity theft issue by issuing certificates that are non-certified and stamped "For Genealogical Use Only - Not For Identification." Bill Status Line: 1-866-301-9004 HB 100

I've gotten so many requests that I'd better clarify how to get copies of the non-certified death certificates for 1911 - 1953 from the Kentucky Historical Society. You have to GO to the Kentucky Historical Society in Frankfort to copy them yourself for .30. You can also request a library reference person to copy it for you by mail or online. The charge is $5 if you are in-state or $12 if you are out-of-state. If you want more than one certificate use the Staff Researcher service which is hourly. $25 per hour (or $15 if you are a member of the Kentucky Historical Society.) They can copy several in an hour. Please us the online index to get the certificate number and year that it was filed. (usually this is the same year as the death.) One of the easiest to use is the Kentucky Vital Records Project of the Kentucky Gen Web. http://www.rootsweb.com/~kygenweb/kvrp/ You can order the certificates online with a credit card from the Kentucky Historical Society. Go to http://history.ky.gov Click on "Shop the 1792 Store" Click on "research" By mail with a check in advance: Kentucky Historical Society Library 100 W. Broadway Frankfort, KY 40601

Somewhere in the back of my mind I remember seeing that Capt. Enoch Osborn married an Eastridge widow. It would have been in the first half of the 1800s. I am sorry I can't be more detailed. Does anyone have this family in your lines and will you share with me any details...children...etc.? Thanks a big bunch! Sharon Young Jebavy <><

The Kentucky Death certificates for 1911-1953 are available on microfilm at the Kentucky Historical Society and other genealogical libraries in Kentucky. At KHS the cost is .30 each. The deaths are indexed online at: Rootsweb http://userdb.rootsweb.com/ky/death/search.cgi (1911-2000) Vital Search http://www.vitalsearch-worldwide.com/ (1911-2002) University of Kentucky http://ukcc.uky.edu/~vitalrec/ (1911-1986) This will not change if the legislation passes.

Here is a brief timeline of Social Security in the United States: I found it pretty interesting. http://genealogy.about.com/library/weekly/aa010801a.htm 14 August 1935   President Franklin D. Roosevelt signs the Social Security Act into law. The new Act created a social insurance program designed to pay retired workers age 65 or older a continuing income after retirement. 24 November 1936  Applications for Social Security account numbers were distributed by the U.S. Post Office. The post offices then collected the completed forms, typed the Social Security number (SSN) cards and returned the cards to the applicants. The applications were then forwarded to the SSA's processing center located in Baltimore, Maryland, where the numbers were registered and various employment records established. Over 35 million Social Security numbers were issued through this procedure in 1936-1937. The first SSN account was established for John D. Sweeney, Jr. of New Rochelle, New York and the lowest number ever issued (SSN 001-01-0001) was to Grace Dorothy Owen of Concord, New Hampshire.  1 January 1937  Workers began to acquire credits toward old-age benefits and payroll tax (FICA) withholding begins. 2 January 1937 The first applicant for a lump-sum refund was a retired Cleveland motorman named Ernest Ackerman, who retired one day after the Social Security program began. During his one day of participation in the program, a nickel was withheld from Mr. Ackerman's pay for Social Security and, upon retiring, he received a lump-sum payment of 17 cents. The average lump-sum payment during this period was $58.06. The smallest payment ever made was for 5 cents. 10 August 1939  The Social Security Amendments of 1939 broadened the program to include dependents and survivors benefits. 31 January 1940  Payments of monthly benefits began in January 1940. On January 31, 1940 the first monthly retirement check was issued to a retired legal secretary, Ida May Fuller, of Ludlow, Vermont, in the amount of $22.54. Miss Fuller died in January 1975 at the age of 100. During her 35 years as a beneficiary, she received over $22,000 in benefits.  1947   Application for Social Security number no longer includes employer information. 1950  Individuals in U.S. territories like Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, as well as employees working abroad for American companies became eligible for Social Security benefits. Conditional and temporary government workers, farm and agricultural labor, the self-employed, certain short-term railroad workers and domestic workers (those earning wages in a household setting) also gained Social Security eligibility the same year. 1955  Eligibility was increased to include employees working for a subsidiary of a U.S. company abroad or self-employed farmers.  1956  Farmers who owned their land and took at least a managerial role in the farming became eligible in 1956. Self-employed lawyers, dentists, medical professionals (except medical doctors) and other professional groups also received coverage in 1956. The new amendments also provided benefits to disabled workers aged 50-65 and disabled adult children. The minimum retirement age for women was lowered to 62. 1961  The Amendments of 1961 lowered the age at which men are first eligible for retirement benefits to 62.  1962  The SSA began processing requests for benefits electronically, resulting in the beginning of the Social Security Death Index. 1963  Railroad workers were issued a SSN based on where they applied for Social Security coverage just as everyone else, rather than being issued numbers in the special block 700-728 which was previously used. 1965  President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Medicare Bill in the presence of former President Truman who proposed this legislation to Congress in 1945. 1967  The Department of Defense began using Social Security numbers instead of military service numbers to identify Armed Forces personnel. 1972 A law was passed requiring SSA to obtain evidence of age, identity and citizenship or alien status of every legal alien upon entry into the United States, and to issue them a Social Security number. 1989  Parents can automatically obtain a Social Security number for a newborn infant when the birth is registered with the state of birth.
