How do I find out -ONLINE- where and how someone died if I know their name, SS#, and date of death?

I was recently told that my ex-husband had died years ago. I went to the Social Security Death Index, and all it told me was that he died in August of 1991. It did not say where his last residence was, so I do not know what state he was living in at the time. The newspaper in his hometown does not have archived obits that far back online, and I really want to find my information online, not in person, for personal reasons. His name was Joseph Allen Whitlow, Sr. We lived in Princeton, WV when we were married in the early 1980’s, and his mother still lives there, but I don’t want to call and ask her about it after this many years. My source about his death thought that he was living in Texas when he died, working as a manager for an apartment complex, and that he died of a drug overdose. But I can’t find anything in the Texas death record database or newspaper searches. Does anyone have any idea how to find this information online?

Your best bet is to go to a large library i looked up a death which took place some 45 years ago and found it with no problem
