If you click on the Search tab at the top of the page and Search All Records (yes, you have to leave your tree) then in the top right hand corner, you'll get the link for the "Go To Old Search". Once you do a search in the "Old Search", then you can go to a tree, and "Search Records" on a person, and it will use the "Old Search". I'm not sure if there is another way - but that's my work around. I agree with you on the New Search - I've sent in my comments to Ancestry and I hope many others do as well.

I find the new search inadequate and time wasting, when wanting to hone in on a particular requirement.

Thanks all. Going to the Search tab was what I wasn't doing. Used to having the login default to old search, and going to my favourite databases at that point.
