The Hint search engine is a powerful example of where a computer can do some things much easier, faster, and more accurately than can be done manually. In addition to the current Hint feature, expand the usefulness and power of the Hint search engine with several enhancements that would be available in a separate search page: 1) provide the option to access all levels of search results, including lower level results not currently available to users, 2) add the capability to search for a user defined target person with a potentially large set of genealogical information, and 3) review the searches currently conducted by the search engine to identify additional searches that can be added to increase its power and usefulness.
