From an E-Mail from Footnote.com:
The Social Security Death Index (SSDI) is one of the most widely used and valuable databases for genealogy research…Footnote has created a page for each record that includes:
+ The complete indexed information
+ A place to add additional facts
+ A photo gallery
+ A timeline
+ A map
+ A place to add stories and comments
Access the SSDI Database (Updated Weekly, Free)
Btw, note the many ways to refine search results. They are located in the left-side column of a results page.
Note: Two other places to find the SSDI (free) are Ancestry.com (updated weekly) and FamilySearch.org.
Both services also provide the social security number of the person you are hoping to locate.
Note: Footnote.com also provides both free and fee-based services. You can compare free vs. fee on this page.
