This feature is valuable when doing any research for a surname, place, location or other hard to find items in the genealogical area. Be aware that a surname may appear more than once in an article or category.

  • It is best to use a single name for your search. Example use the last name, or use the first name, or use the maiden name.  Some of the females do have their maiden name in the list. Use the maiden name without the use of commas or quote marks.
  • Single word search brings up that word.  Multiple word search brings up every location where either one or both of the words were found in the search.

Results will be highlighted in Bold print.

Note that most of the listings are alphabetized by last name, first name, middle initial if known, (maiden name if known), date(s) the name or item can be found at.
