Search by Keyword: This will search the title and marker description for the words you specify in the keywords text box. Only markers having all of the supplied keywords will be returned by this search.

Search by Subject: This will return markers relating to certain popular subjects. For example, many markers relating to the Civil War do not have the words "Civil War" anywhere on the marker itself and so cannot be found using the term "Civil War" as a keyword search. Please select a subject from the search drop list and then press search to view markers related to your selected subject.

Search by Number: Each marker located in Kentucky (there are a few Kentucky markers located outside the state) has a unique identifying number. If you know the number, you can enter it in the search box to retrieve information on just that specific marker.
