Keyword Search looks for the "term" (one word or number works best) you type throughout the whole record. It is less accurate than the advanced search but it does let you search for age, religion, mother's maiden name, etc. if transcribed.
Note: The baby registered here is my grandmother. I am proud and tearful to have transcribed her birth 101 years later. Mothers maiden name is Curry from her husbands death certificate.
