SEARCH HELP

Search

The easiest way to find a person, is the use the SEARCH box above, at the far left of the tool bar.

Enter a Lastname/surname, a firstname/forename or part of a name - The database will start listing possible matches.

Examples:

• Ableman will give you a list of people with that name
• For women, search for a maiden name or married name(s)
• The search will look for each part of the name entered, so Marion Bair will give you Marion Frances Higley Bair as a result.
• We enter names from many sources, and the source may not have a correct spelling. So, try common mis-spellings if you don't get a result.

Return to Home

You can click through and browse the Brain to explore in many ways. BUT you can always click the HOUSE symbol on the tool bar to get back to the start.
