Changing Linked Record to Real
Posted: Thu Dec 09, 2010 1:24 pm
We have a member of the ward who was baptized years ago and is now age 12. However, we have found that her record is only a linked record, meaning it was created by church headquarters for administrative purposes. It links to her mother's family, where she lives, but does not function as an actual member record.
I know that I need to create a real record for her, but am unsure whether to do it as a new child of record or a convert baptism. Neither seem to be completely appropriate, yet they appear to be the only two options to use. She was baptized at age 8.
