All; When we were Beta Testing PAF 5 I noticed the Search feature (fifth item on the command line) at the top of the PAF screen. My initial reaction to it was negative. I questioned its value. After all, I reasoned, who wants to do a general search on the FamilySearch Internet site? Later I noticed that PAF Pal has the capeability to add three additional sites (Ancestry.com, Genealogy.com and RootsWeb.com) to that list. Again my reaction was negative. This year two things happened that changed my mind about that feature. Shortly after my wife died I began to "update" her PAF file by transferring the source citations from the Notes to the Sources. The other thing was that I taught a number of classes to those individuals who were called to serve as Ward Family History Consultants. I now regard the Search feature as a very valuable tool in both of those endeavors. For those working on the Gift of Family History this is a very helpful short cut to doing a survey of resources for an individual. All that is necessary is to highlight the individual for whom a survey is desired and then select Search and then Ancestry.com (either at the FHC or at home if you have a subscription to that service). A search of all of the databases is then displayed together with a rating. The rating (one star to five stars) is a good indicator of the quality of the possible match. This feature has saved me many hours of searching the individual censuses, death indexes, etc. The displayed list can then be copied (using the Print Screen button) and pasted into a word processor (WordPerfect is best, but Microsoft's Word will work, albeit with more difficulty) where it can be printed for inclusion in the packet. For updating my wife's family file it allows me to automate the search of the 1910, 1920 and 1930 censuses. Have any of you "found" this feature as helpful as I have? Richard L.
