I recommend using FIND TAKE TEACH 1 for those who are beginners in Family History or beginners in using Family Tree. It is effective at introducing people to family history and Family Tree in a successful and motivating way. They are able to find names to take to the temple in an simple, organized and repeatable way. If their trees have been gleaned of green temple already don't despair, move on to Find Take Teach 2.
I have added instruction about using the FamilySearch App. It is fun, easy and fast! Try it! You will love!
WHY IT WORKS!
1. There simply so many possibilities with a full or partial Tree.
2. The 110 Year Rule-An individual must receive permission from a closest living relative to do temple work for any family member who was born within the past 110 years. This ensures that the individual is most likely deceased.
3. The New 2-Year Rule-There were individuals with up to 111,000 names in a single temple reserve list. An ordinance amount they could never actually complete, especially when their accounts become inactive. This rule was really meant to focus on inactive accounts and allow family members to get the temple work completed. The LDS focus is on family members doing family names and experiencing the special emotions that come with that service. In so doing, the desire and motivation to attend the temple increases.
With this in mind a 2-year reserve rule was implemented and FamilySearch released 11 million names into the system starting in the fall of 2015. Through 2016 it was fairly easy to find names to take to the temple but it has gotten a bit more difficult with the proliferation of apps that glean green temples from the Family Tree. I personally don't prefer these programs because individuals don't learn anything about using Family Tree. By following the steps outlined in the links above people are ready to move on to Step 2 which is what this work is all about.
4. 1988 Sealing to Spouse Rule Change-This was made to accommodate the many complex family relationships that people find themselves in. This rule allowed women to be sealed to all of their spouses even when later marriages were just for time and not eternity. The resulting children could then be sealed to their biological parents.
5. Individuals are adding people to the Family Tree and not reserving the names.
HOWEVER:
"Best Practices" would beg that you go into the Person Page of each individual you reserve and evaluate the information provided to make sure the reserve is valid. This would also involve a global search of Family Tree using the FIND feature.
Family Tree does glitch occasionally:
1. A notable error occurred in spring of 2016 when BIC (Born in the Covenant) children were released for SP (Sealing to Parents) ordinance work. The fix required reporting it to FamilySearch so they could fix it internally, individual by individual.
2. Another glitch happens sometimes when parents are merged for an individual and create "ghost parents". When you go to an individuals ordinance page you see that there is a date for SP but there are no parent's listed. Then you see a "Request" button for SP to the parents that do appear there.
What Every Family Tree User Should Know about Name Finding Apps - Kathryn Grant
Can an app find a name for you to take to the temple? James Tanner
I just watched Kathryn Grant's webinar. It was very informative and I deleted a name-finding app I got a month ago in Utah and fortunately hadn't done any ordinances because of it. Thanks.
