Can you please restore John Burt's (9SX3-NPL) original SP ordinance date of 15 August 1901 to him?

My 5th great uncle, John Burt (9SX3-NPL)– born 31 October 1729 in Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland, son of Robert Burt (LRNL-NJ7) and Elspeth Aitken (LZ6T-KMH), is missing the date of his original Sealing to Parent which is 15 August 1901 in the Salt Lake Temple. John’s siblings Andrew Burt (KN44-776), Robert Burt (LZG2-F5L), Andrew Burt (KN8G-5S2), and Janet Burt (KN8P-DNG) all have their correct sealing to parent date of 15 August 1901 in the Salt Lake Temple, but John Burt (9SX3-NPL) is missing his Sealing to Parent date all together and a patron listed as CookJackie1 reserved that SP ordinance and has shared it with the temple.

I knew that all of the temple work for my 6th great grandfather Robert Burt’s (LRNL-NJ7) family had been done long ago so I went to the Family History Library and looked up John Burt’s (9SX3-NPL) Sealing to Parent temple ordinance in Special Collections. I found the Sealing to Parent record of when my 6th great grandfather Robert Burt (LRNL-NJ7) and my 6th great grandmother Elspeth/Elizabeth Aitken Burt (LZ6T-KMH) had 6 of their children sealed to them on 15 August 1901 in the Salt Lake Temple. (I found this record on FHL film 1,239,609 -was listed in the catalog as 184656- on page 56 in Special Collections.)

On this Temple Sealing to Parent record, the children listed of Robert Burt and Elizabeth (Elspeth) Aitken Burt are Janet Burt born 25 Aug. 1713 (is now Margaret Burt in Family Search), Andrew Burt born 11 Nov. 1717, Robert Burt Jr. born 13 May 1720, Andrew Burt born 29 Dec. 1725, “John Burt born 31 Oct. 1729,” and Janet Burt born 22 March 1732 are all listed as being born in Fife, Scotland except for “John Burt” and he is listed as being born in Aintshall, Fife, Scotland. (Aintshall is listed on John Burt’s original Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland Parish Birth record that is in his memories and sources.) On this Salt Lake Temple record all six of these Burt children from Fife, Scotland were sealed to their parents Robert Burt and Elizabeth (Elspeth) Aitken Burt on 15 August 1901. My Great Granduncle George Burt (KWJD-GS9) was proxy for Andrew Burt (born 1717, KN44-776) and my Great Granduncle Peter A. Burt (KWJ8-ZL1) was proxy for the father of the children, Robert Burt (LRNL-NJ7). Below I have included pictures that I took with permission, of the record of this Sealing to Parent Ordinance that took place on 15 August 1901 in the Salt Lake Temple. You will see that John Burt (9SX3-NPL) born 31 October 1729 in (Aintshall), Fife, Scotland was sealed to his parents Robert Burt (LRNL-NJ7) and Elizabeth (Elspeth) Aitken Burt on 15 August 1901 in the Salt Lake Temple. Could you please restore this original Sealing to Parent ordinance date of 15 August 1901 in the Salt Lake Temple to John Burt (9SX3-NPL) born 31 October 1729 in Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland?

 Below is a large picture of page 56, Sealed to Parents, 15th August 1901. (I am related to all of the Burts listed on this page.) The children of Robert Burt and Elizabeth (Elspeth) Aitken Burt born in Fife, Scotland are the bottom six children on the page. #1476 Janet (Margaret) Burt born 25 Aug. 1713. #1477 Andrew Burt born 11 Nov. 1717. #1478 Robert Burt Jr. born 13 May 1720. #1479 Andrew Burt born 29 Dec. 1725. #1480 John Burt born 31 Oct. 1729. #1481 Janet Burt born 22 March 1732.

This is a close-up picture of the 6 children of Robert Burt & Elspeth/Elizabeth Aitken that were sealed to them

Above is a picture of the right side of page 56. First is listed the 6 people who were proxies for the 6 Burt children of Robert Burt and Elizabeth/Elspeth Aitken Burt that were sealed to them on 15 August 1901. (My great granduncle George Burt KWJD-GS9 was the proxy for Andrew Burt KN44-776.) The 6 Burt children’s parents’ names, Robert Burt and Elizabeth (Elspeth) Aitken Burt are then listed to the right of the proxies’ names. At the top right-hand side of this page, my great granduncle, Peter A. Burt KWJ8-ZL1 is listed as the proxy for the father of all of the Burt children that are listed on this page. So, my great granduncle, Peter A. Burt KWJ8-ZL1 was proxy for my 6th great grandfather Robert Burt (LRNL-NJ7) That picture is following. 

The first close up above shows the 6 children #1476 - #1481 of Robert Burt and Elizabeth/Elspeth Aitken and you can see on the right side of the page the partial names of the proxies for these children. Then on the next close up you can see the complete names of the proxies for these 6 Burt children and you can also see their parents names, Robert Burt and Elizabeth (Elspeth) Aitken Burt listed as the parents that they were sealed to on 15 August 1901 in the Salt Lake Temple.

Could you please restore the original Sealing to Parent ordinance date of 15 August 1901 in the Salt Lake Temple to John Burt (9SX3-NPL) born 31 October 1729 in Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland?

Thank you
