Can anybody tell me in what year that recepatacles had to be grounded?
That year was the year that the local jurisdiction began enforcing the 1962 NEC with the grounding-type recectacle requirement unmodified by local ordinance.

Prior to the blanket requirement for installing grounding-type receptacles of the 1962 NEC, a NEC specified list of specific locations where grounding-type receptacles were required had existed. The list had slowly been growing.
