Website Search
Our Powerful Search Facility trawls all the following within our website:
- news items
- FHSC Forum
- contacts
- documents
- Cheshire Ancestor
- exchange journals
- events
- FAQs
Because there is such a huge database of information stored on our website now, I find that I get more targeted results by searching for the exact phrase. Otherwise when I searched for Sophia Klaus (I tend to use her whenever I am trying out any new search facility because there was only ever one of her) I have fifty matches with the Cariboo FHS Journal in Australia, but each one of these turned out to be referencing an academic work by someone called KLAUS, so not useful to me.
So using Boolean search techniques and Wildcards doesn't work, stick to exact phrase or single name searches.
