I would like to be able to have more criteria when searching in my family tree to create a list.  For instance I would like to be able to figure out if any of my family served in the Civil War.  So I tried to figure out how to export to excel a list of all males that were alive during the years of 1861-1865.

 So I suggest that we can search in a date range that we choose.

Hi Eric,

Thank you for writing.

 This is a great idea and I will make sure to let our product managers to know about it.

For now, my suggustion to you (and what I do when I work on my tree) is to export to excel the list

of all people, and then use the built in filtering function you have in excel.

 If you need more information about the filtering in excel, you can find it in this link:
