Social Security officially ws begun in 1937, with some payments being paid as early as 1940. However, the SSDI is the computerized index to deaths reported and/or death benefits paid out starting in 1962. The SSDI includes a few pre-1962 entries, but the great majority of those included in this index are from 1962 through the present time.
