Topographic Maps of Eastern Europe 1901 Census of England and Wales Online Genealogy Search & Family History Records Broad Name Search Begin by searching the website for your family records using broad queries. Remember, less is often times more. If your ancestor has an unusual first or last name, try searching the genealogy archives for one name at a time. Then refine your family search by adding additional information such as date range, occupation and location. Note that using both first and last name search fields will return genealogy records in which the surname is automatically "near2" the first name. "Near2" means our genealogy search engine automatically finds occurrences of the first and last names within two words of each other. This search default brings you the most record matches containing the family member name you are searching for in our online archives. Common Ancestor Names If your family member has a surname that is also a common word (like Brown, Snow, etc.), put quotation marks around the entire name. Example: "John Snow" Examples: "Snow, John" "John Joseph Snow" "John J Snow" "J J Snow"
