SCF said: I used Watch List to save my deceased ancestors that had not yet been deceased for 110 years. I could then search for them by year and month, and Watch List would generate a list of my ancestors that had been born in the year I entered into the search. In this manner, I could easily find the deceased ancestors that were ready for ordinance work. When you change to Following, you removed the ability to search by birth date, and now, there is no easy way to determine which of these ancestors or relatives are ready for ordinance work. Can you add a search by birth date or by year function? I have deceased relatives saved on what was Watch List with birth dates clear out to the 1930s.

    Paul said: There is some good news about FamilySearch listening to its users over the loss of facilities in the change to the Following feature. (See https://getsatisfaction.com/familysea...).

    However, there is at yet no indication that either your request OR the problem of losing the former ability to have a list in Last Name order will be addressed. Hopefully, FamilySearch developers are following threads on these issues, too.
