Surname Finder Search Tips:

• Because the Quick Search is a surname-specific search engine, it is an excellent way to find surnames that are also common words such as Brown or Day, and to find surnames that can also be first names such as Thomas or James.
  
  
• Enter a surname once, then search each database.
  
  
• To search using a first name also, go to the Genealogy Search directory.
  
  
• Search all the databases for each surname. Each has different information.
  
  
• Search results will open in a different browser window. Please allow time for the search results to appear.
  
  
• If the search utility do not work for you, make sure you have the latest version of your browser and have javascript enabled. As an alternative, go to the Genealogy Search directory.
