Your last residence on the SSDI does not always mean that you died there, but rather that your mailing address for SS purposes was there -- this could be because your legal or court appointed guardian resided at that address. This is important to remember when searching the SSDI -- Thanks, Tony, in south central Wisconsin.

Thanks for the info on using SSDI, I like many others assumed that meant where the person died. New knowledge is always appreciated. Thanks for taking your time to inform us.
