Did the accident cause his death? (it's not clear from your post) if so, death certificate will list place and cause of death. An accident might also be mentioned in local newspapers.

Death certificate will list exact place of death. If you check the local papers (possibly weekly) for that area it may mention an accident (altough perhaps name won't be listed). Also, you could check the paper for a while after as details of inquests are often written up in papers.
