The name of the Batch No. website is "Hugh Wallis" With the new Family Search, it's always been better to choose your database first, bear in mind that there are now many new databases or collections which at this point only consist of digital images and have not been indexed yet. Once you've performed a basic search in your selected collection, you will end up with a list of results taking up most of the page. Down the left hand side you find a "Filter your results by" title, under which you can add filters to narrow down your search, including one called "Collections" which allows you to change the collection which you want to search without having to backtrack and start again. Numbers in brackets will inform you of how many results are available in the collection or filter option which saves you from having to look at collections where your search parameters have produced no results. Finally, you can always use Control +F to open a box with which you can search the webpage for specific content.

I used to be able to search for a surname and a location (e.g. a town or county) and made quite a few good discoveries that way. Now the location box is no longer part of the main page. I can't even achieve the same result by just choosing a surname and whittling the results down step-by-step (e.g. Europe, then England, then Leicestershire). Its time-consuming, and I seem to get fewer matches than appeared previously. Has anyone else encountered this? Is there a way to get the same result with the new site? The batch number search is good if you know the number. Sandra
