At Mocavo you can search SSDI by birthdate. Mocavo is a search engine for data on genealogy sites - definitely worth a visit. http://www.mocavo.com/ Jen > Date: Sun, 15 Apr 2012 13:33:57 -0400 > From: Gail Collins <gcollen@sympatico.ca> > Subject: [ONTARIO] Searching for US deaths > > > Searching for US deaths (using given name - not surname) > http://ssdmf.info/ > > The Social Security Deaths Index in the US is one of the few nationwide > resources, so it is much used by genealogists (the fact that it's available > free at the Family Search site is a bonus).
