If you did not find the person you were looking for, you may need to search the collection image by image. <br> ⇒Select Browse through images on the initial collection page <br> ⇒Select the "Name Range" category which takes you to the images  
If you did not find the person you were looking for, you may need to search the collection image by image. <br> ⇒Select Browse through images on the initial collection page <br> ⇒Select the "Name Range" category which takes you to the images  


Look at the images one by one. Again you will need to compare the information with what you already know about your ancestors to determine which one is your ancestor.  
Look at each image comparing the information with what you already know about your ancestors to determine if the image relates to them. You may need to look at several images and compare the information about the individuals listed in those images to your ancestors to make this determination.  


Be aware that with either search you may need to compare the information about more than one person to make this determination. Keep in mind:
With either search keep in mind:
*There may be more than one person in the records with the same name.
*You may not be sure of your own ancestor’s name.
*Your ancestor may have used different names or variations of their name throughout their life.


*There may be more than one person in the records with the same name.
For tips about searching on-line collections see the on-line article [[FamilySearch Search Tips and Tricks]].
*You may not be sure of your own ancestor’s name.
*Your ancestor may have used different names or variations of their name throughout their life.
*If your ancestor used an alias or a nickname, be sure to check for those alternate names.
*Even though these indexes are very accurate they may still contain inaccuracies, such as altered spellings, misinterpretations, and optical character recognition errors if the information was scanned.

The following citation refers to the original source of the information published in FamilySearch.org Historical Records collections. Sources include the author, custodian, publisher, and archive for the original records.  
When you copy information from a record, you should list where you found the information; that is, cite your sources. This will help people find the record again and evaluate the reliability of the source. It is also good to keep track of records where you did not find information, including the names of the people you looked for in the records. Citations are available for the collection as a whole and each record or image individually.
