I am meeting a half sibling for the first time. I’d like to offer a gift of some sort on behalf of our late parent who never had the chance to meet their child.
What would be appropriate?

Thank you

Like, you just know that you're going to have to spend the next half hour repairing linkages and detangling the mess after some well-meaning person takes the wrecking ball to persons in your painfully researched work? Or they add relationships based on flimsy evidence or simply because some names are similar? Or they link up a confused mess because the father, son, and grandson had the same names? Or they delete linkages because they didn't know their great grandfather married again? Or they change a person's name to the transcription error of a single source? Or they change the death date to something wrong even when there's a picture of the grave stone/death cert? Or they add misinformation about a person you knew personally? Do you hope the list of changes are for people hundreds of years back so you wont feel compelled to go check?

Me neither.

Hi! I'm new to this subreddit and I'd love to get some help grabbing these locked images on FS:

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XSC4-DQLR

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:62KM-2Z3N

Both of these images should belong to a group of records related to the graves they were buried. Saturnino and Maria were siblings but I don't now if they were buried in the same grave or in separate graves cause all the pages before and after are also locked.

I know it's too much to ask, but is it possible for someone to open these links and grab all the images that come before and after? I'm hoping their parents were also buried in the same grave or more siblings and relatives.

Thank you so much in advance!

We have some relatives that joined the church in 1898 in the Swiss Mission and then all of their children were baptized. Not the parents but most of the children are listed in the year 1935, "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Church Census Records (Worldwide), 1914-1960" or 1932 or some other variant year. What was or is this census record mean? They were active members in that year or used to be and were still on the rolls or i've never heard of this census record before

Hi, I used to have access to this record, but it is now locked for some reason. Do someone has access to it and could download the image for me?

This is from an index provided by Ancestry and FamilySearch but no image, these are my ancestors but I would have liked to see the image to see if the paper trail can give me additional information, it looks like either FamilySearch hasn't made the image available or the diocese of Granada hasn't given them permission to post it (or both), by any chance is someone from Spain that could help me out to see if there is an alternative to see the paper trail would I have any luck contacting the diocese of Granada, Spain?

I'm at my FamilySearch Center this afternoon. I'm happy to retrieve limited-access records if you provide the URL to the record.

FULFILLED Edited to fulfilled as research to locate burial still ongoing.

I'm requesting assistance to search the following records

https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/catalog/film?dgs=101466410&cat=olib:2827924&i=0

Specifically I'm searching for information pertaining to a 1-3 day old child

Forename: Unknown

Surname: Dawson

Parents: Joseph & Mary Dawson

Date of Death: 11-12 March 1864

Body Found: 16 March 1864

Interred: about 16 March 1864

For context the following article relates;

>
The first and youngest victim was a 2-day-old baby boy, the child of a tailor named Joseph Dawson. They lived in Lower Bradfield. Dawson's house was located at the end of a row of houses at the bottom of the valley, about 20 yards from the river's bed. He had personally seen the crack but thought there was no immediate danger. So, he could not believe it would fail. He and his wife went to bed at their usual hour only to be awoken when he heard men shouting "It's coming! It's coming!" As his wife was still convalescing from child birth, Dawson searched for help to safe his family, but as no one was available, he carried his wife as she held their newborn tight in her arms.

>Dawson reported:

>"[A]bout twenty yards from the door … the flood met us, and knocked us both down … We were both covered by water, and I was obliged to let my wife go … [We returned to the house hoping to make it upstairs when] the flood caught us again, and washed the blankets and my child away, and left my wife naked in my arms … I was obliged to leave the child to its fate, or I could not have saved my wife."[3]

>The tiny body was found a few days later having been carelessly deposited by the flood in someone's coal cellar.

Hello, I want to know how do I add an existing profile of my ancestor tp the family tree on the app

Hi everyone,

I’m currently researching my ancestor August Menzel and would really like to see the baptism record of his son Johann August Menzel, born on 16 December 1847 in Kuttlau, Lower Silesia.

The record should be in this FamilySearch collection:

Title: Kommunionen 1755-1759 -- Taufen 1776-1871
Film: 1714877
Image Group Number (DGS): 8017023
Link: https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/catalog/film?dgs=008017023&cat=405568&i=0

Unfortunately, the images are only accessible from a FamilySearch Center, and I currently don’t have an active center near me.

If anyone is already planning to visit a FamilySearch Center and would be willing to quickly look for the entry, I would be very grateful. Since 16 December 1847 is the birth date, the actual baptismal entry may of course be dated a few days or weeks later.

I definitely don’t want anyone to make a special trip just for this. Thanks a lot for any help!

Can someone please send me the image from the link above?

Thank you so much in advance

I'm at an Affiliate Library this morning and can retrieve limited-access records if you supply the URL.

Hi everybody, can someone help me view this document about one of my ancestors? It would be really helpful for my research. This is the link:
