My niece listed above passed away January 16, 2021 and I'm trying to get her records together to get her endowed. I spoke to an Elder (forgot his name) in Family search, and mentioned that the Community will be able to help me. I added her yesterday and her I# is listed above - couldn't locate a K# for her and noticed when I went to Ordinances that her baptismal records are not there, and I know for a fact she was baptized at 8 years old, back in 1993ish. Where would I go to find that information, and why isn't it in Family Search?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you.

    If a person has not been deceased for a year and a day, Family Tree shows the ordinance status of "Not Ready." Family Tree does not allow you to reserve ordinances for a person until one year and one day after the date of death. The calculation is based on Greenwich Mean Time, not local time zones.

    You cannot reserve the ordinances until the waiting period is complete. If this ordinance status displays in error, it usually means that Family Tree lacks the correct death date.

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

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

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

    Further to what has already been proffered ...

    Just in passing ...

    Here are the relevant associated "Knowledge Articles", in 'FamilySearch':

    The ordinances for a recently deceased individual are listed as "Not Ready"

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/the-ordinances-for-a-recently-deceased-individual-are-listed-as-not-ready

    [ ie. NOT immediately displayed ... ]

    Performing ordinances less than a year after death

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/performing-ordinances-less-than-a-year-after-death

    [ ie. Where 'caveats' apply ... ]

    I hope, that this may also help/assist.
