Genealogy Surname Finder




Genealogy 'Surname Specific' Search Engine Utility

The Ancestor Search Surname Finder is a surname-specific search engine which means you receive results only if the surname matches your query.

It is an excellent way to find difficult-to-find surnames that are also common words such as Long or Fields or Day, and to find surnames that can also be first names such as John or Thomas or James. Find relevant surname results in this genealogy surname finder.

Enter a surname once to search multiple genealogy databases.




Surname Finder Search Tips:


  • Because the Quick Search is a surname-specific search engine, it is an excellent way to find surnames that are also common words such as Brown or Fox, and to find surnames that can also be first names such as Thomas or James.

  • Enter a surname once, then search each database.

  • Refine your search results adding first name and location at the search results. You can also use the Genealogy Search directory.

  • Search all the databases for each surname. Each has different information.

  • Search results will open in a different browser window. Please allow time for the search results to appear.

  • If the search utility do not work for you, make sure you have the latest version of your browser and have javascript enabled. As an alternative, go to the Genealogy Search directory.

  • Use this genealogy surname finder utility to search for genealogy record databases for Census, family trees, immigration & ship passenger lists, vital records, Mormon (LDS) genealogy archives, message boards & forums, RootsWeb, the SSDI, and surname databases.
