That's my option at the moment, but I still have to include

Search > Individual > Birth place > Contains > County
Search > Individual > Baptism place > Contains > County
Search > Individual > Death place > Contains > County
Search > Individual > Burial place > Contains > County
Search > Marriage > Marriage place > Contains > County

to get everyone who had an association of any kind with that county

which puts me into 6 variables and into two search actions.

If I wanted to find people who had any event occur in a certain year, or
after a certain date - I have one and only one search variable

Search > Individual > Any Date > Contains > 1900

I need something like this for places
