Eliz, This is a bit involved - but.... Very handy little feature - In Family View - highlight a person you want to research - click INTERNET - Search Internet for current person - now select the website you want to search (from the choices) and click SEARCH.
What I was asking was for a customized search string -- and Leon came through!! You can click Customized Searches (lower right) and SELECT one of the searches that you want to REPLACE... On the next screen - click ADD - Give your new site a name - and enter the "customized Search String" - then click SAVE. Finally click SELECT and it will now show as a choice for the Internet Search. Leon's search string works quite well for the site!!
