Why are my twin sisters showing they need to be sealed to parents when they were BIC?

My twin sisters Rebecca KDBN-3YC and Rachel KD1D-C1N surname Rice, were both born on 25 May 1953 and died the same day, are showing they need to be sealed to their parents. My mother and father were sealed in the temple on 4 Oct 1945 before the twins were born, so the twins are BIC and do not need to be sealed to parents. My parents ID are: Wilford Rice KWZM-S8M and Maude Fox KWZM-SZB.

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    [ And, I happend to be a Member of the Church ... ]

    Just in passing ...

    I just had a 'look' at both, Rachel RICE ( KD1D-C1N ); and, Rebecca RICE ( KDBN-3YC ).

    And, I had a 'look' at "My Relationship", to them - I am "Related", they are also my Cousins ...

    [ Hence, my interest ... ]

    As, their Parents, were "Sealed", in (SLC) "Temple", in 1945 ...

    I suspect, that the reason, that there is NO "BIC", recorded for/against the Twins (Girls), is possibly due to the fact that, NO "Membership Record in the Church was ever "Created" fror them; as, it appears, that they were, "Born"; and, "Died", on the SAME Day in 1953.

    [ ie. Never 'Officially' "Named" and "Blessed" (in Church) ... Hence, NO "Membership Record" created ...]

    Now ...

    That Said ...

    As such ...

    As happened in a, recent, similar, matter, in the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum, of which I am aware ...

    I would humbly suggest, that "Data Administration", of 'FamilySearch', will need to investigate; confirm the 'Status' of the, "Birth"; and, "Death", of the Twins; and, create NEW "Belated" individuals/persons referencing their association to the "Church", WITH the 'Status', of the "Temple" Work; as, "BIC'.

    Whereupon, once that is done, you will be able to "Merge"/"Combine", the existing Rachel RICE ( KD1D-C1N ); and, Rebecca RICE ( KDBN-3YC ) , with the NEWLY created versions of them; so that, Rachel RICE ( KD1D-C1N ); and, Rebecca RICE ( KDBN-3YC ). are the "Surviving" individuals/persons.

    Just my thoughts.

    I hope this may give you some possible, insight; and, understanding.

    Brett

    ps: The "Moderators" [ ie. 'FamilySearch' "Support" (Personnel) ] will need to take this matter into the Workings of 'FamilySearch' "Support", to forward onto the Area/Department in 'FamilySearch' that can action this matter.
