Male Sealings to parents

I am a single, divorced sister. I pull names off of temple ready but it only gives me female sealings to parents. I would like to be able to select male sealings to parents. If I use my son or sons-in-law the program pulls males but they are not necessarily related to me. I would like to be able to choose only those related to me.

    The Ordinance Ready file was set up to enable a person to have easy access to a selection of names when presented with an unexpected opportunity to attend the temple. When you use this, you will be presented with a limited number of names that are the same gender as yourself, usually from your own reserved list, as that is what the purpose of Ordinance Ready is. If you want either more names or different sexes, then select them from your list in My Reservations in the normal way.

    @Nelson Sandra Jean1, one thing you can do is always check In Family Tree to see if the women whose names you get through Ordinances Ready have brothers that need sealings. They often will. You can reserve them directly out of Family Tree. That also gives you the chance to see if they have sisters. You may find that the parents and some of the children need more work done than just the sealings and you can get all of that taken care off. Then you can make sure the entire family gets all their work done rather than just doing one sealing for one child and the family continuing to wait to get B/C/I/E/S completed for everyone.
