Hi, I am wondering if anyone is better at guessing what the correct spelling might be for (place name) Novasznts, Poland. I just came across a military registration record for my grandfather which I had not seen before. On the record, his place of birth is written as Novasznts, Poland. I am guessing whoever wrote the name did not know the correct spelling, or was not sure of the proper Polish spelling, or did not know how to convert the spelling from Polish to English. Up to this point, the only reference I've had to my grandfather's (Peter Lizon) life in Poland before coming to the U.S. in the early 1900's was his ship record which shows him as coming from the town of Olszana. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks, K. Helene

Karen, It might be Nowy Sacz, which is a large town  in Poland, and at one time was the "Wojewodstwa", for the area.  Loosely comparable to  our County.  It should appear on most maps of Poland.  Wanda Mercier ________________________________ From: Karen Lizon <khlizon@comcast.net> To: POLAND-ROOTS@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, April 22, 2012 12:37 PM Subject: [POLAND] Place Name: Novasznts / Novasants Hi, I am wondering if anyone is better at guessing what the correct spelling might be for (place name) Novasznts, Poland.  I just came across a military registration record for my grandfather which I had not seen before.

Whether a name appears in the Social Security Death Index is a function of whether the death was reported to Social Security. There are other reasons besides a death benefit for the death being reported. The deceased or a dependent child may have been receiving disability benefits, in which case the family would also need to report the death to social security. But remember that due to fraud and privacy issues, Social Security also removed all names previously in the SSDI which they had obtained from State Indexes and Health Departments, so many deaths previously listed no longer appear. The only deaths now appearing are the ones that Social Security had privy to from their own records. I also was told by someone at Ancestry.com that they are removing all deaths from the last 10 years from their version of the SSDI, although I do not know if this is true. I also can confirm that the SSDI contains deaths back to 1940 and before. I just did a test search at GenealogyBank. I also am suspicious, though, that the deaths before 1940 may be data entry errors, I believe that there are not supposed to be deaths for before 1940 listed.

I believe the SSDI records have a wider span. I just looked up a name . This person was born in 1891 and died in 1976. It is true that if a death benefit wasn't paid, that person may not be on the list.

Irene, The SSDI records are filed by date of death so with the online indexes starting in 1962 (per Sharon) then the SSDI record you found dated 1976 fits into that time frame.

Heidi, People did not appear on the SS Death Index unless a death benefit was paid and that only happened if their was a surviving wife or minor children.

In addition, I can report that my grandfather was listed in the SSDI - he died in 1939; no benefits had been paid. My father died in 1958, also listed in SSDI, no benefits had been paid. Guess I've just been lucky.

I found a William Kocol b.27 Nov., 1891 d. May, 1976. Of course I neglected to note the SS# Go to SSDI; enter last name and Chicago as aplace pf death.

Hi Heidi - What year did he pass away? When I was looking for the SS# for some of my relatives that died in the 1950s, I could not find their SS# in the SSDI either. And the SS# was not recorded on the death certificates at that time (at least in my area in central New York State), so that didn't help. But I did eventually find some of them other ways.

You may have already done this...gointo the SSDI enter the last name and look for a birth date that corresponds with your grandfather. If the place issued fits, you probably have the right one. > Date: Sat, 21 Apr 2012 12:08:40 -0600 > From: quiltartist1@gmail.com > To: POLAND-ROOTS@rootsweb.com > Subject: [POLAND] Social security application > > Hi Everyone: > I am researching my grandfather, William Kocol who lived his entire life in > the Chicago area.

When did your grandfather die? The SSDI index began in 1962, but is not complete for the first few years. Also if he worked for a railroad he would not have paid into SSN. Teachers also had their own retirement funds.

Hi Everyone: I am researching my grandfather, William Kocol who lived his entire life in the Chicago area. I have been able to find all the bmd's relating to him. I have not been able to get his application for social security. He is not listed in the SSDI under any of the first names he used including: Benny, Boleslaus, William or Bill. Does anyone have any idea how to find a back way into these records? I would love to have this document for my Kocol book. Thanks for your help, Heidi Sisco

Sometimes the death certificate contains the SSN. You could order the SSN application based on his SSN. ________________________________ From: Heidi Sisco <quiltartist1@gmail.com> To: POLAND-ROOTS@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, April 21, 2012 1:08 PM Subject: [POLAND] Social security application Hi Everyone: I am researching my grandfather, William Kocol who lived his entire life in the Chicago area.  I have been able to find all the bmd's relating to him.

Vera, I tried Shtetl Seeker and the closest town that I could find to the spelling of Zolozyno was Zalezino, Russia.  http://data.jewishgen.org/wconnect/wc.dll?jg~jgsys~gazetteer  It doesn't look like it's in the area that you mentioned. I tried Ellis Island Gold http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/EIDB/ellisgold.html because there you can type in just a few letters of a town's name, and see what you can come up with.  You might want to try that since you might run across a familiar surname in a particular town.  When I searched for Zolozyno, I did find ONE from Zolozynow, but when I looked at the original manifest, the cursive writing didn't look like that to me.  Best of luck!
