Hi Does anyone know if it is possible to 'search' your shoebox on Ancestry as I have nearly 200 items in it so it will take a while to find the record I am looking for? Cheers Clare

Thanks Gwen I have already done that but it shows 199 items and I was wondering if there was a way to find a certain person rather than having to look through all the pages Cheers Clare

Hi Susan Just tried that but it only seems to find a name on the page you are looking at not the names on other pages Cheers Clare
