I first heard about this type of action being taken by those that just had to get their pedigree back one more generation from one of our non-member center staff people. The people, as identified, do / did exist but this sort of action just leaves a bad taste about the quality of research and does not comply at all with the spirit of the First Presidency letter of 16 June 1995 (Ensign, Sept. 1995, 80) "Because of the sacred nature of this work, members should be diligent is assuring the accuracy of all information submitted for ordinance work." How are you to come to know your ancestors if all you do is add a title to the name of the spouse? 2 cents, David, San Diego District ---- Jean Ohai <jbohai@comcast.net> wrote: I have seen this a lot in Scandinavian lines. I offered to help my daughter-in-law with some research and found that someone had gone to all the end-of-line lines, added Jens and Mrs. Jens, Christen and Mrs. Christen, Hans and Mrs. Hans, etc., etc. and reserved temple work for them. No attempt was made at any kind of research or documentation. Once something like this is allowed to go through, who is going to go in to see what if any documentation can be found? Say, such as checking for the death and burial records to determine actual names? What kind of an identity is that?
