For an advanced search:

  • Include specific details like their school or hometown to narrow your search.
  • Leave out words that might bring up the wrong people.
  • Include a specific time period, especially since names can be common.

Use these tips to make sure you find the right information:

  • Start with what you know about newer family members to help find older ones.
  • Try using the person’s initials as many older records used them instead of full names.
  • If you’re looking for information about a female relative, try searching with her husband’s name.
  • Spelling wasn’t always checked back then, so try different spellings of names.
