I am a novice here trying to locate records for my great great grandmother Clara De Foe. When I search on 'De Foe' for Death or Birth records, nearly all of the 300+ records that come up precede DEF ie the records are alphabetically before where De Foe should be - ie they stop for eg at Dee but not DEf or DE F. Am I missing something? Grateful for any advice. SMT
