Searching for any phrase.
Sometimes you may wish to search for a particular phrase across the thousands of pages in the site. This site has two different sorts of content: main pages (which are pages of a database written in "Wiki" code), and content in the form of web pages (or extracts from them) which include the pages of the Family Tree, much of the history, and material in some document pages. There are two corresponding search boxes.
