I cannot complete the sealings to parents for this person and his siblings due to "the names contains invalid characters. I have tried spelling out Saint instead of St. and have tried deleting the period after St. Any suggestions.

    @tljbarton, when sealing a child to the parents you need to look at all three of the individuals. Although the error message indicates the problem is with the child, the real issue with the name could be because one of the parents' names have an invalid character or name.

    Are you sure that is the ID number you meant? K46D-4DF's sealing to parents was reserved back in 2018. The same is true for about half of his siblings. The other half all have sealing to parents completed except for one with a green icon, which can be reserved, and one that is orange because the only info on him is is name.

    I can't see any message about invalid characters anywhere.

    I do see that the mother Julia KCMC-PT2 had parenthesis removed from the name field by tlibarton on 16 Jul, so maybe that was causing an issue with a sibling?
