First try searching by just the last name. If there are too many results,
narrow your search by typing the last name followed by the first name
without the comma and in quotes - example “Brown Charlie”
*** doing this example will produce one result – try the example before doing your own ***
be careful with spelling – searching for "pittman willard" won't find him but
searching for "pittman williard" does provide a result - misspellings by transcription
or by the newspaper do make a difference when using the search box above
