Can I do wildcard searches (alternatively called a fuzzy match)?
A. Yes, the wildcard character to use is a % which represents any number of characters e.g. if you thought your ancestor was called ‘Hitchen’ but could be ‘Hitchon’ or ‘Hitcher’ then you could supply ‘Hitch%’. Wildcard characters can be used in both the names and places. Note: You should supply as much of the name as possible. In the above example if you just supplied ‘H%’ you are likely to get too many matches.
