I understand what you're saying Jill, because in my work for the Genealogy Society, I come up with a lot that I'd love to see on NFS, so that possibly someone could find them (I have a list that I've been building that I call "no known survivors", and there were no known immediate family for them at the time of their death. There may be extended family somewhere...) Would it be appropriate to put it into NFS so that possibly someone could find them that IS related? Or at least save time in the millenium when a lot of questions will be answered. Karen In a message dated 5/7/2009 4:29:05 P.M.

Karen asked: Would it be appropriate to put it into NFS so that possibly someone could find them that IS related? Yes, it's appropriate to share your research on anyone that you have research for, assuming that you have permission from a client if it is work done for someone else. There is no problem with submitting and sharing "research." What I have learned is that there may be a time when the temples will "extract" information from NFS for individuals that has been entered but the temple work has not been done. My hope is that if no family ever finds my unrelated research, that perhaps someday a temple might pull it into a temple file. Jill Crandell

Jill, What information do you have about conditions for a future time when our submissions to nFS may be extracted? I mean.. I know it will happen, I have always thought that the times when the Temples are functioning 24 hours a day, etc. would not be in my lifetime (for me that is 10 years max). Alan W.

I have been reading the enormous amount of words and time being spent on this subject.  All of you must have more important things to worry about. You are preaching to the choir. Leave it alone. Do some home teaching or visiting teaching or help a member who doesn't have a computer to get their Temple work done. Also, get off the discussion as to what program to use.  Try them and see which one fits your personal needs and you feel comfortable using.  The FHC havs them all installed for your use. Have a nice day! --- On Thu, 5/7/09, Sahara346@aol.com <Sahara346@aol.com> wrote: From: Sahara346@aol.com <Sahara346@aol.com> Subject: Re: [LDS-WC] President Obama's mother's temple work done, inappropriately To: lds-ward-consultant@rootsweb.com Date: Thursday, May 7, 2009, 9:38 PM I understand what you're saying Jill, because in my work for the Genealogy Society, I come up with a lot that I'd love to see on NFS, so that possibly someone could find them (I have a list that I've been building that I call "no known survivors", and there were no known immediate family for them at the time of their death.
