[APG Public List] New control on Ancestry searches

[Debbie Parker Wayne]

See 
<http://blogs.ancestry.com/ancestry/2010/02/24/new-filtering-options-coming-to-new-search/> 
for information on new name and place filtering options to be added 
tomorrow (Friday) in both old and new search at Ancestry.

Someone at Ancestry is finally responding to all those mutterings under 
our breath as we try to narrow down searches to find a specific person 
in a specific place without narrowing it down to exact spelling. I am so 
hoping this works well. I love wildcards, but sometimes wildcards just 
don't do what I want. And if I'm searching in Milam County, Texas, I am 
much more likely to want items in nearby Lee County, Texas, than those 
in Alabama or Michigan.

I can't wait to try this out on some searches that have been frustrating 
me for months and years.
