Advanced Search Tips

'Exact matches only' checkbox

Checking the "Exact matches only" box at the top of the search form checks all of the exact checkboxes on the form. When all of the exact checkboxes are checked, the search will only return results from records that contain information for all the fields where you entered information AND where the information in the record exactly matches what you entered.
'Exact' checkboxes

When you uncheck the 'Exact matches only' box at the top of the search form, all of the 'Exact' checkboxes will be unchecked.

By checking the 'Exact' box by an individual field the search will require the result to include and match that item exactly. This will allow you to, for example, require a place to match exactly, but find variations of a last name.
