Sealing Ordinances

Jan Haderlie

What happen to sealing ordinances when a mother child relationship is removed from an incorrect mother?

Graham Buckell

Generally if people have been sealed (spouse or parents) to the wrong people, then the ordinances need to be redone. There are some exceptions to this. See

However, when a relationship is broken, the original ordinances are retained in the records. After all, it may be that the original was correct and the person breaking the link made a mistake.

So, for example, you may see a record of a sealing to parents at the same time as an opportunity to request a sealing to parents where the parents have been changed.

I read the article. It is exactly the information I needed. The sealing to the wrong mother was done after 1969 so nothing needs to be done.
