I just visited Steve Morse's homepage at http://home.pacbell.net/spmorse and see that he has added yet another genealogical tool to his one-step toolbox for us to use. This one searches the social security death index (SSDI) in one step. There are several other SSDI searches on the Internet so I was curious to see whether Steve's was any different. It turns out Steve's tool doesn't do the actual search but rather lets you select from a list of several search engines that are on the web. According to Steve's faq page, he did this because no one search engine supported all the search parameters. For example, some let you search by soundex but not by partial first name, and others allow just the opposite. With Steve's form you can use one search engine for the first search and then easily switch to another search engine for the next. Diane Jacobs New York
