5.  SSDI:  Social Security Death Index (online at RootsWeb.com):

Name	Birth	Death	Last Residence	SSN	Issued	Post-em
Melvin TSCHOPP	04 Dec 1910	03 Nov 1988	17048 (Lykens, Dauphin, PA)	199-03-9744	PA	Yes
Ernest E TSCHOPP	09 Jul 1916	27 Jul 1980	(VA)	183-12-4244	PA	Yes

There is an Annie TSCHOPP in the database who appears to be our subject's wife, but the dates don't jibe with Annie's 1900 census record, nor with dates supplied by a secondary source, which don't jibe with the 1900 census, either.
