It would be great if we could sort by birth year in the Find feature.

We all share an active interest in using the resources of this site and as users, we have various levels of knowledge and experience and do our best to help each other with concerns, issues, and/or questions.

As you realize, the columns in the Find search results cannot be sorted. It is my understanding that this feature will be further developed and that some of it has already been built in, but it is not yet implemented in the User Interface... I could be wrong on that, but that's my understanding.

Even though we can enter dates for birth and death, the system generally ignores them (I just did a test), even when exact is specified.
