Using a Computer
Search Help
You can use the search bar to look for a person, place or event. Using the advanced search feature will help narrow or expand your search.
We recommend that you start with a broader search then attempt to narrow it down.
Think about the types of things you’ll find in newspapers: obituaries, engagement/wedding announcements, birth announcements, along with news articles about family members.
You may want to think about what the subject of your search would have been called at the time it occurred for example, World War 1 would be called the Great War or you could search using a date limiter.
Once you start your search, you can select limiters along the left hand side such as date and full text.
