Searching for a family named INCE
« on: Monday 16 October 06 19:54 BST (UK) »
I have tried to use the search facility to se if there's any information about my husband's INCE family.  The trouble is these letters together are in so many common words ......... such as prINCE, INCEst etc.

Is there any way I can search for this surname without getting hundreds of useless matches ?
