Does anyone know if the Social Security Administration place the death
information on all cross-referred names in each account? I.E. Mary Jones gets
married and gets a new card Mary Smith. Then Mary Smith dies. Does the SSA
put two notice of death in the SSDI file. Could I look up Mary Jones and find
her birth and death information. I do know these two numbers and names are
cross referred in their system. Charlie 0
I doubt it very much. When a female gets her Soc. Sec. No., she is normally
unmarried and is issued a card for "Mary Jones." When she marries, the Soc.
Sec. No. is updated to reflect the new name, "Mary Smith." The Soc. Sec.
No. for an individual is like a name, unique to a person. S.S.Admn normally
will not replace a person's S.S.#. In rare cases like identity theft or a
duplication of numbers when given out, would be two reasons for a new number to
be assigned. If you know her date of birth and the year of death, you could
look at the Social Security Index and come up with her number. RWI
