Solution to SEARCH and FIND
You should have started a SEARCH using the Pico Search program and entering 'michelle' in the search box like the this one"

Search Box

The search results should have appeared like this:

Search Results Page

Its helpful to understand he results page. At the top (indicated by arrow "1") is the search "argument" used. In this case 'michelle.' The line below Michelle shows the number of pages (14) found with the word Michelle in the pages, and an indication that some detail of the first 10 pages is shown on this first results page. The next line provides links to the other 4 pages found.

The most important thing on the results page is indicated by arrow "3" which is the Page Name of the first page found. Notice, the page name ends with "Family Tree 10." That indicates it is a Family Tree page, Generation 10. The pages are ranked, based on the SEARCH Engines assumptions, with the most likely page at the top. (Its assumed that most searchers want a Family Tree page.) The Page Name line is a link to that page.

In many cases, the SEARCH Engine will find pages (history, reference) that are not Family Tree pages, although the pages are at this site. You may view them or ignore them. The titles of non-Family Tree pages Look Like this:

Other Pages

[Note: In the above image, the SEARCH found the page used to bring you to this page (the one you are reading), and it found (not shown) this page.]

After clicking on the page title and arriving at the top of page, you should have pointed to the EDIT Menu, and SELECTED "Find in..."

You should have typed into the dialogue box 'michelle' and clicked the FIND button of the dialogue box.

The page would have jumped down to Michaela Michelle Lochrico with 'Michelle' highlighted. That clearly is not the Michelle being sought. Another click on the "Find Next" button would take you to:

The searched for name 'michelle' would have been highlighted (darkened). The entry (hit) is Coley Michelle's PARENTS family page. Coley Michelle's name is clearly a LINK to more information. Clicking on her name would produce the following:
