Is there a way to search for unclaimed files that would allow you to view those files and possibly take over as manager?

Hi Bryan,
That's a good question and I very much appreciate what motivates it. Thank you.
This isn't possible right now. We do want to work on something like this.
I assume it's something you'd want to do by surname?

Yes, I have seen a few Stearns' out there and I have been able to place a few and manage them. I have over 10,000 Stearns' in my three volumes from 1901 back to 1853 in addition to approximately 8,000 others related by marriage.
