Could you restore Margaret Watt's original temple ordinance dates and Logan Utah Temple to her?
Family Search, I need your help in restoring Margaret Watt’s K89C-GBC, who is the wife of my 3rd great-granduncle Robert Burt’s, original 30 November 1886 Baptism and Confirmation date and in the Logan Utah Temple to her. And also, the Logan Utah Temple needs to be added as the temple to Margaret Watt’s Initiatory and Endowment date of 17 December 1886. Margaret Watt’ temple Initiatory and Endowment date of 17 December 1886 is correct, but the Logan Utah Temple is not listed. Margaret Watt’s Sealing to Spouse date of 17 December 1886 in the Logan is correct. My great grandfather, Alexander Burt KWJC-LVV was the “Relation to the Dead” in Margaret Watt’s 30 November 1886 Logan Utah Temple baptism and Alexander Burt’s KWJC-LVV wife, Agnes Watson Burt KWJC-LVJ was the “proxy” for Margaret Watt’s endowment that was completed on 17 December 1886 in the Logan Utah Temple in Margaret Watt’s temple endowment record. Agnes Watson Burt KWJC-LVJ is listed as Margaret Watt’s great niece in law. (I went to the Family Search Library in Salt Lake City, and I found the copies of the original temple work that was done for Margaret Watt in Logan Utah Temple in 1886. Margaret Watt’s endowment was done for her by her great niece in law, Agnes Watson Burt KWJC-LVJ. Also in Margaret Watt’s 30 November 1886 Logan Temple baptism, Margaret’s great nephew in law, Alexander Burt KWJC-LVV is listed as “Relation to the Dead.”)
I was able to find the Margaret Watt MJ61-W3N in Family Search’s “Find Section”, that has the original Baptism and Confirmation date of 30 November 1886 and in the Logan Utah Temple listed. This Margaret Watt MJ61-W3N also has the original Initiatory and Endowment date of 17 December 1886 and in the Logan Temple listed. I merged the Margaret Watt MJ61-W3N that has all of the original 1886 temple work in her Ordinances section with the Margaret Watt K89C-GBC that only has her Initiatory and Endowment date of 17 December 1886 and no temple listed, and the original 1886 temple ordinances and in the Logan Utah Temple were not showing after the merge. I unmerged and merged the 2 Margaret Watts several times, but still the original temple work that my great grandfather Alexander Burt KWJC-LVV and his wife Agnes Watson Burt KWJC-LVJ did for their great aunt, Margaret Watt K89C-GBC is not showing. The original Sealing to Spouse date of 17 December 1886 in the Logan Utah Temple is the only original temple work date and place that is correct. My great grandfather, Alexander Burt KWJC-LVV was proxy for his great uncle Robert Burt MH3R-JSL and Alexander Burt’s wife Agnes Watson Burt KWJC-LVV was proxy for her great aunt in law in that 17 December 1886 temple Sealing to Spouse ordinance that was in the Logan Utah Temple. I found the record of that Sealing to Spouse in Special Collections in the Family Search Library.
Below is picture of Margaret Watt’s original 17 December 1886 Logan Temple endowment that was done for her by her great niece in law Agnes Watson Burt KWJC-LVJ. In that temple endowment it lists the date of 30 November 1886 as that date of Margaret Watt’s temple baptism. So below the Endowment record is the 30 November 1886 baptism in the Logan Utah Temple record of Margaret Watt’s baptism by Sophronia Ada Rogers and Alexander Burt is listed as the “Relation to the Dead.”
Margaret Watt is the 10th person down on this 17 December 1886 Logan Utah Temple Endowment record. Margaret’s endowment was completed by her great niece-in-law, Agnes Watson Burt KWJC-LVJ. Margaret Watt’s baptism date is listed as 30 November 1886 in this Logan Temple Endowment record.
Below is the 30 November 1886 Baptisms for the Dead in the Logan Temple record. Margaret Watt is listed halfway down the page. Margaret’s great nephew, Alexander Burt KWJC-LVV, is listed as the “Relation to the Dead” for Margaret Watt’s temple baptism.
In Margaret Watt’s ordinances section could you please restore Margaret Watt’s original Baptism and Confirmation dates to 30 November 1886 and in the Logan Utah Temple?
Also, in Margaret Watt’s ordinances section could you please add Logan Utah Temple to her Initiatory and Endowment date of 17 December 1886? I don’t know why the merge feature is not adding the original temple work dates and places to Margaret Watt K89C-GBC.
Thank you for your help in this sacred matter.

Thank you so much for your help in restoring Margaret Watt's K89C-GBC original temple ordinances to her. Do you know why the merge of the Margaret Watt that had all of the original temple ordinances, wouldn't restore those temple ordinances dates and temple to Margaret Watt K89C-GBC?
Thank you again,
