I'm not familiar with this site at all, but I saw the info at a U.S. genealogy forum and thought I'd pass it on quick in case there's anyone here for whom it would be useful.

You're welcome! I found it a little strange to sort out, being just so used to Ancestry, but it did produce results. Not was I was looking for ... I wanted to search for people named Dorothy and Maud born in England in the 1890s and living in Michigan, but it seems you can't get quite that specific. ;)

Thanks Janey!!

I've found my great aunt and her husband still living in Newark.

I know she died sometime in the 1950s, and was a widow at that time. I keep digging away, think I'll find more about when he died.
