You can search with a last name and * (asterisk gives you any first name) 3. You can search using a last name and one, two, or more letters of the first name. 4. You can search using a partial last name which is useful if the name has a chance of appearing in various spellings. If you use this though, you MUST use the asterisk for the first name otherwise it assumes the partial last name is the full last name.
