You have to take some of these high dewpoints from 1995 with a grain of salt. The chilled mirror sensors in use at the time had to be regularly cleaned or they could produce spuriously high readings.

The hottest day of my life.July 15th 1995..was at an outdoor party..temp 102 dewpoint 83. It was so hot I had to go inside,take my face and plant it on the AC for relief..Heatwave killed hundreds in Chicago

Same here.  Never felt it more nasty HI wise before or since.  It was stifling beyond words.  You literally could not take 10 steps with starting to drip sweat.

Don't know the exact number but I think numerous locations were between 115-120 at least.  Was just nasty.

Brutal day. This feels worse than the days we hit 100 but less humidity. Just atrocious.
