Hi Jan,

Ancestry's search for two or more people depends on them being the subject person and their father, mother or spouse.

The other possibility is if the person other than the head of the household is designated as boarder, inmate, lodger, patient, serv(ant) or visitor. Then they on their own can be searched for, and the designation from these chosen in the relationship drop-down-list box.

All the best,

AndrewP
