* Indicates that the option must be selected from the drop-down to be searched. It is not included in the default search results.

Search Tips:
If you are interested in a specific county or project, check the drop-down menu above. If that county or project is marked with *, then you will need to select that county because it lives outside the main MIGenWeb file space.

BE SPECIFIC. Simple, generic searches return too many matches to be helpful. Use quotes to search for exact phrases, such as:

• "scio twp"

Try alternative spellings using "OR" to separate them, like:

• linderman OR lindeman

Try swapping first and last names, such as:

• "austin lowe" OR "lowe, austin"

Use AROUND(X) where X is the number of nearby words to consider close enough to match.
This creates a proximity search to look for one phrase within so many words of another, such as:

• earhart AROUND(4) dixboro

Combine multiple methods. Examples:

• "john smith" OR "john smythe" OR "smith, john" OR "smythe, john"
• cemetery AROUND(3) "medina twp"
