In some cases, there may be several sites that index the same set of records. Consider using other indexes when available and when one index does not help you to find the desired person. Another person making their own index may read something differently than did the first person. Don’t assume someone is not in a record because one index fails to include him. And remember that a manual search of the records may be necessary.
