Search problemI don't know if this will solve your current problem, but if the
index is for the years 1858 - 1946, you need to select the search after 1857
and before 1947, else it will not select any deaths in 1858 nor those in 1946.

Hello
Jenny of this previously assisted me when I was endeavouring to locate all
deaths between 1858 and 1946 to enable me to search for any wills in the
English Probate Index.
Jenny's very clear instructions which worked the previous time were as
follows:
You need to set up a Search as follows:
Select the Search Menu, then Find ... Select the Detailed Search tab.
Under Look for whom select Individual, under Where to look select Death Date,
under How to look select After and under What to look for select 1858.
Now tick the box for Second Condition and make sure the radio button for And
is selected. Make selections in each of the boxes as you did above, but
choosing Individual, Death Date, Before and 1946.
Now tick the box for Third Condition and again select And. Make selections
as above, choosing Individual, Death Place, Contains and England.
Finally, select the radio button for Clear List before this search and then
click the Create List button.
I have just prepared to do an update and I received a "No results found"
message and yet I had just recorded two items which would have fallen within
the scope of the search.
I even changed it to look for SRY or SSX in lieu of England as I knew I had
recorded events for these counties.
Is anyone able to advise me if I am doing something wrong?
