READ THIS before clicking above: first, the Davenport library seems to often change the structure of their pages for this topic, so let the county coordinator know (see in footer) if there is an issue with the page. When you get to the page, under "Search Builder", click on button "Add Condition". Under the "Data" pop-up menu, choose "County". For the "Condition" pop-up menu, choose "Equals". In the blank field to the right, enter in "Marion" (no quotes needed). You can experiment more by adding other conditions since otherwise you will need to wade through about 2000 records. You could choose a year, name, city, or other options.
