"Not Available" might appear for many reasons. The most common are the following:
- Privacy reasons prevent display of the ordinances.
- The individual is still living or death information is not recorded properly.
- The person lived before A.D. 1500, and the ordinances are probably complete.
- Additional approvals are required before you can perform ordinances for the person (such as for a famous person or Jewish Holocaust victim).
- The person does not show a spouse or parents for sealing ordinances.
Other reasons include the following:
- A couple does not have a relationship defined in Family Tree or is in a **** relationship.
- The record is about a Church member who died, and the death has not been recorded on his or her Church membership record.
- One of the parties in a sealing is still living.
