Sealing unavailable - Is this where I ask why?

My great great grandmother, Josephine Cluff (KWNY-F5H), is showing that her 'sealing to spouse" is yellow and statused as "Cannot request - Not Available" for her first spouse, whom I am descended through (John William Jones LHVW-2XJ). They did get divorced, and then she remarried. Would this be the reason? If so, my great-grandmother, their daughter, is sealed to them. I would think that not possible if the parents were not sealed? At any rate, should I be asking this question in this forum or is there some other contact for support for this topic?

    @Gregory Sterling Porter

    FYI

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

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

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

    Just in passing ...

    As, I "Related" ...

    Regarding, Josephine CLUFF ( KWNY-F5H ); and, John William JONES ( LHVW-2XJ ) ...

    And, "... They did get divorced, and then she remarried ..."

    Your Question: Would this be the reason?

    Short Answer: I would humbly suggest, 'No'.

    There most likely, would be OTHER "System" problems/issues (eg. 'Wayward' "Merge"/"Combine"; etc ... ).

    As an aside ...

    There is a possible "Duplicate" for John William JONES ( LHVW-2XJ ) ...

    Being: John William JONES ( K2WB-JCQ ) ...

    Where, the "Birth" record is NOT "Standardised"; and, the "Temple" Work, is NOT available.

    Just for starters ...

    In the first instance ...

    Can I humbly suggest, that you "Standardised", the "Birth" record, for John William JONES ( K2WB-JCQ ).

    And, then, "Merge"/"Combine" the two ...

    That may or may not, help/assist with the "Temple" Work; but, will certainly get rid of a "Duplicate".

    Furthermore ...

    Just so that you are aware ...

    Just for your future reference ...

    For any matters, pertaining to, "Temple" Work, the more appropriate 'Category', to submit posts is

    FamilySearch Help

    'Category' = Temple

    HOME > FAMILYSEARCH HELP > TEMPLE

    Temple

    https://community.familysearch.org/en/categories/temple

    https://community.familysearch.org/en/categories/temple

    Now ...

    That Said ...

    Hopefully ...

    This post of yours, will be "Moved", to that 'Category' of "Temple'; and, a "Moderator" [ ie. 'FamilySearch' "Support" ( Personnel ) ], will respond, taking your post, into the workings of 'FamilySearch' "Support", to help/assist you.

    Good Luck.

    I know, that this certainly may not help/assist; but, I hope, that this may provide you with, some additional, insight; and, perspective.
