Put name of the Father in boxes on right and the forename ONLY of the mother in box under Then give the Region and Country. NOTHING else. Then Search. You may find several given if the father and mother are usual names and you just have to filter the ones you want by dates and parish. The list may not be complete.

Also, try various spellings of the surname. I have Vaus ancestors and when I typed Vaux, I found additional family names which confirmed what my ancestor had written down.
