I am trying to search for my wife's family and do not have a lot of information, The family name is Dee, but when I search for Dee a lot of variations come up and offer about 250 pages with variations of Day, Dea etc. How can I narrow the search so it only shows Dee and not the others.

    If you know where the family lived, you can narrow by location. And, if you only want records showing the exact spelling of Dee, you can use the "exact" option.

    It can also be helpful to narrow your search by type of record.
