Project?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV><FONT face=arial,helvetica><FONT lang=0 face=Arial size=2
FAMILY="SANSSERIF">Hi Y'all,<BR><BR>I recently used the US GenWeb Project for
Oregon, and came up with a slight problem..I don't like to call it
that..but..may be something I am doing wrong..?<BR><BR>I feel the site is very
good, and really like it, in fact, it is one of the best in the nation, but I
think I may be using the site wrong, and was wondering if any experienced
Native sons and daughters could help this fifth generation Californian, use
the very excellent Oregon US GenWeb Project search function?<BR><BR>Okay, I
had this problem..I wanted to look up Captain John Henry Brown in
Oregon,1840-50. Well, what happened was I got so many Browns I did not
know where to start? Is there a way to get the wording right so that the
amount of Browns that come up are more limited? Is there something, I
might do to make this a little easier?<BR><BR>Any advice
appreciated,<BR><BR>Susie</FONT> </FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
