QUICK TIPS

If you are looking for a name, and use quotation marks to limit the number of hits you get on the Web (i.e., "John Smith"), you should also reverse the order and try the search the other way (i.e., "Smith John"). If your ancestor is on a list somewhere that is alphabetized by the last name, the second search may find him, but the first won't.
