| This functionality can help you to define your search
more precisely. It gives you extra fields in which to
enter search terms. CAUTION
The indexes for the additional fields such as Where
Born and Occupation do not contain standardised terms but
an exact transcription from the census returns. These
boxes should be used with caution as you may exclude the
person that you are looking for simply by being too exact
in your search criteria. Additionally, searching for
"strings" (i.e. a word in a field) uses
considerable database resources which may slow up
searching. For more details see Where
Born and Occupation.
