Hello Betsy, There are several free versions of the Social Security Death Index online. Three of them are listed here... Social Security Death Index (SSDI) - Online Searching http://www.genesearch.com/socialsecurity.html I don't think I have ever seen a place of issue in the SSDI where the city was given, just the state. The state information can be derived from the first three digits of the Social Security Number. See this table for details... http://www.ssa.gov/employer/stateweb.htm For a fee you can order a copy of a deceased person's SS-5 (the form filled out when applying for a Socical Security Card) -- that should tell you where that person was living at the time they applied. http://www.researchguides.net/ss-5.htm Happy searching.
