Download your tree as a gedcom - say it's called MyTree.ged. Make a copy of this file and rename it from Copy of MyTree.ged to MyTreeCopy.txt - you can now edit this text file with something like Word, Wordpad or Notepad, and use the built in Find function, probably under the Edit menu item. Although the preceding text will look slightly odd, you'll recognize the guy's name & d.o.b. |
