Using Google Search with RootsWeb FreePages

Ancestry.com provides free space where you can build a genealogy website.  The service, part of Rootsweb, is called FreePages.

Here's a Google search command you can use to find pages with the word Henthorn in the FreePages area of RootsWeb. To look for another surname simply replace Henthorn with the surname of interest. (Note: It is important to put a space (blank) between the "/" and the surname Henthorn. This may not evident in my post, depending on how the long search term appears on your screen.)

site:http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/ Henthorn

As of 18 January 2013, when I tested this search there were over 800 hits.
