Robin, Thanks. My brick wall is in Pennsylvania. I've done a lot of research and have contacted people over the years in different organizations, but no luck. But I'll try again and check this link out. Thanks.
Great tip! I never looked at that section of FS before. I found one of my ancestors pretty quickly too, but to be fair, I knew he was a public figure in Woolwich and had written a great deal. To narrow the search it helps put in the full name in inverted commas.
I’ve not had any luck with it. I’ll try again.
If you want, try FamilySearch: https://www.familysearch.org/en/fieldops/familysearch-support-contact-us I used to volunteer for FamilySearch. They might be able to help you.

Full text has been a game changer for me too! The fact that it does surprisingly well on handwritten script is fabulous.
We are fortunate to live in this day with so much to assist our research.
