A search for "Anniversary Tribute" will search for the exact phrase; Results will contain "Anniversary Tribute" together.
However, to search for records containing "Anniversary" AND "Tribute" (not necessarily as a phrase), add a separate search keyword by clicking "Add search keyword(s)" so that you have separate search terms of "Anniversary" and "Tribute"
Wildcards can be used in text search fields, but not as the first character.
To perform a single character wildcard search use the "?" symbol, e.g. "Lev?" will find Levy or Levi and any other word beginning with "Lev" with four characters, but won't find "Levey".
The multiple character wildcard * (asterisk) looks for any number of characters (or none) within the nominated text. "Lev*y" will find Levy and Levey. "S*war* " will find many variations of the name including Swartz, Schwartz, Schwarcz, Szwarc. "Davi*s" will find both Davis and Davies as well as Davidowits. "Lev*" will find any name beginning with "Lev", eg Levine, Levinstein, etc, as well as Levy, Levi and Levey.
We welcome enquiries from researchers, academia, and members of the public and where possible will make records available for inspection at the AJHS office by appointment. Please request access to specific records by following these steps.
