Perhaps you should try some spelling variations:
2c stephen » c stephen, 22 stephen, 27 stephen
2 stephen » 12 stephen, 22 stephen, 27 stephen
2f early » 24 early, 21 early, 23 early
22 early » 2 early, 12 early, 1722 early
20 early » 10 early, 1820 early, 1720 early
20 1726 » 20 1796, 20 1721, 20 1786
27 1726 » 27 1736, 27 1746, 27 1796

Try widening your search to All Fields.

You may be able to get more results by adjusting your search query.

• If you are trying to use Boolean operators, they must be ALL CAPS: %22badger%((2c stephen) OR (2 stephen)) %((20 1726) OR (27 1726))-1803 %((((2f early) OR (22 early))) OR (20 early)) works to 1800%22.
• The words AND, OR and NOT may confuse the search; try adding quotes: "%22badger%((2c stephen) OR (2 stephen)) %((20 1726) or (27 1726))-1803 %((((2f early) or (22 early))) or (20 early)) works to 1800%22".
• Adding a wildcard symbol may retrieve word variants: %22badger%((2c stephen) OR (2 stephen)) %((20 1726) or (27 1726))-1803 %((((2f early) or (22 early))) or (20 early)) works to 1800%22*.
