I have tried to google for the above name but only get the contraceptive pill info in return. I have tried inverted commas, use of+ between Pill and family and also between Pill and family history and Pill and history with out success. I then get info re family history complications when taking the Pill!!!
Any suggestions please?
Thanks Di

Do you have a first name to go with Pill? for instance would it work with "Harry Pill"?

Have you tried on Advanced Search where there is a box for unwanted words.

Thank you all. I wondered what I needed to do to sift out the medication aspect!

Margaret - no-one specific was just trying a blanket search initially.
