Your relationship to the individual needing attention: 2nd Cousin 4 times removed

Information to help us find the person (name, birth date, and ID number): ID#L7T7-GD6

An explanation of what is wrong: This person has already been sealed to their parents, yet, Family Search shows that the ordinance needs to be done. I have attached the temple card showing the ordinance is done. Can we get this corrected so we don't do duplicate work in the temple? :) Thank you! ---Siara Pratt

    Hi @Siara Parry Pratt Thank you for posting your enquiry on FamilySearch Community Home page.

    the following is a copy of the notation on the ordinance for sealing to parents

    This sealing-to-parents ordinance is valid. The parents are not listed either because of privacy or because they do not match the parents listed in Family Tree. 

    I noticed that there is a different spelling of the surname of your 2nd cousin 4 times removed which would explain the notation. Viewing the original marriage record document it shows that the surname ends in m and not n. The following is an extract from FamilySearch Knowledge Answers. and the instructions are in the attached Knowledge Answer.

    In Family Tree, you can correct the name, sex, or event information for a person, regardless of whether you added it.

    Family Tree is an open, collaborative environment. Your change shows in a change history, along with your user ID and a means to contact you. Any user, including you, can reverse changes if you make a mistake.

    Before you start

    • Focus on accuracy. Your change should make the information about a person more correct.
    • Be prepared to explain your changes, and, when possible, attach sources.
    • Consider contacting the user who made the last change before you make a correction. To find contact information, click Detail View. Then click the name showing in the "Last Changed" details.
    • Be aware that other Family Tree users could be watching this record. (You can see how many are watching when you make your correction.) They receive an email notification if you change the record. They might contact you to discuss your change.

    Because have you have reserved sealing to parents again you could have a duplication of the ordinance,

    The earliest ordinance recorded stands. You may have to remove the latest request for that ordinance.

    Thank you once more do the vital work that you do in this inspired work.

    Kind Regards, Peter A Basford
