The SSDI index shows Mae Wood born 27 Jul 1891, died Jan 1984, which matches the claimed birth date and the death year. The record is silent on the birthplace and gives a different name, so identity rests on an unstated assumption that Mae Wood is Meta Chill's married name. The 1892 in the lifespan conflicts with the 1891 in both the claim and the record and should be corrected in the database.
Matches: Birth date 27 Jul 1891 matches the claimed date of 27 Juli 1891; Death in Jan 1984 matches the death year 1984 in the person's lifespan (1892–1984)
Flags: The person's lifespan is given as 1892–1984, but the record gives a birth in 1891, so the birth year differs from the lifespan shown (the claim's own date says 1891); Name in the index is Mae Wood, not Meta Ida Amalia Chill; the link depends on Mae being a nickname and Wood a married name, which the record does not show
Limits: Index entry only, no image was read; SSDI does not give a birthplace, so Chicago, Cook County, Illinois is not confirmed; Identity link between Mae Wood and Meta Chill is not shown in the record; Index death date shows 1 Jan, which is a default and not reliable
