It's frustrating to search on Ancestry and not get any results, especially when you know the record should exist. No matter how you change your search, you just can't find it.

The issue might not be in how you're searching. It might be a matter of Ancestry doesn't have the record. Unfortunately, it's hard to tell what Ancestry doesn't have.

In this episode, Amy shows two ways to spot gaps in Ancestry's collections, including a creative way of using the "Browse this Collection" feature.

There's also an accompanying video, which you can see on the show notes at AmyJohnsonCrow.com/66.

Save yourself a lot of frustration (and wrong conclusions!) by spotting these gaps in Ancestry's collections!
