The United States Social Security Death Index lists a Last Residence as "953 (U.S. Consulate) Canada" and I'd love to know just where that might be! Anyone figured this one out?

Thanks!

953 US Consulate - indicates this person is a canadian,
and this number seems to be used for all canadians.

it does not mean this person died in canada, but probably
in USA.

Are you sure about that? One of the people with this listed as Last Residence was born in Oregon and his family remained there after it appears he moved to Canada. He died in 2001 but I don't know where he was living at that time.

Thanks for your time!!

I did some work a few yrs. ago and noticed at the time
that all canadians had this 953 number.
If you check a little further on the american site
then perhaps you will find out where he died.I believe you
can only get a death record in the USA if you are a relative.
Also I sent fax to American Embassy at that time, but
received no reply.

My Relative's death record says 953 (Us Consulate) (PE)
He was born in the UK but emigrated to Canada.
Does anyone know anyway of pinning down where to search for the death certificate?
Thanks

do you have a name & date?
