I am sure that most genealogy researchers are familiar with the numerous internet sites for accessing the Social Security Death Index. Just came across a new free one that I think is the best. Go to: www.genealogybank.com and click on "Free Social Security Death Index" on lower right side of page. When a name comes up that you are interested in, clicking on the name brings up the detailed page. In addition to the date of birth and date of death you will get the day of the week for each event. Also shown is estimated date at death in years, months and days. This index is unique with weekly updates, easy-to-use format and comprehensive coverage. Try it, you will like it.

Bill -- Thanks. I like the format of the information that is returned and it's very easy to use. -Eileen On Sun, Sep 14, 2008 at 2:41 PM, Bill & Cathy McGrath <seamus@nycap.rr.com> wrote: > I am sure that most genealogy researchers are familiar with the numerous internet sites for accessing the Social Security Death Index. > > Just came across a new free one that I think is the best.

Looking for advice. I just received a 14 day free trial on Ancestry.com and am a bit disappointed. People have been touting how great they are for a few years to me and now that I am on, I am shocked at how little info they have on Ireland. They do carry many, many records but nothing I need to find on Ireland. Am I perhaps using the site incorrectly? Is there a special place I should be searching? Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone had any luck trying to get information for the Emmigrant's Savings Bank in New York. The description of the invaluable data they have makes me crazy, because I cannot find any way to access the information. The site seems to be always closed down. Evidently it was used by Irish immigrants and contained a gold mind of personal data on each depositer. Thanks for any help. Carol VerCammen

If anyone is interested there is sa 10,000 year calendar at http://www.calendarhome.com/tyc/original.html which will identify specific calendars for any date you are looking for in genealogy.
