To find unsourced profile for a specific state, I have been adding to the text field on WikiTree+, the name of the state. When I do this (so far, Kentucky and Tennessee), I get almost no target profiles. How can I better find profiles in the area I'm most experienced with? It is very hard to believe there are so few unsourced profiles for either of these states. Please help!

My search for Unsourced orphan Tennessee     and for Unsourced orphan Kentucky   brought up a few thousand on each search.

Thanks so much!! I thought I was doing it right, but what you put in was so much simpler!

You're welcome. Lots of different key words to use, but those are the simplest for me.  Once entered is stays in that search box, so can just change the last State word, to travel around the country.
