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: Original name provided was Mervin Warren Ritchie, then changed by aunt on 12 Jan 1927; this later name was the one the child was christened by.
