Sometimes its best to put as little info as possible in the search - ie just the name and an age give or take say 2 or 5 years. Some of mine dont come up at all if I try to put in a birthplace. Sue

You are SO right Susan! It seems sometimes the clearer you are about the info you put in, the less the 1901 site returns! I usually put in the surname and sex only! If it tells me the request is too long, I put in a Keyword. This usually works pretty well. Sonja
