Under 8 Years Old and Membership Numbers
Posted: Tue Jul 10, 2018 10:40 pm
Hello,
We have a part member family returning to activity with three children from a previous marriage. All three children show up under the "Family" tab of the member's profile, but only one has their own member profile page, membership number and shows up under the "Household" tab. All three children are under 8 and none were born in the covenant or received a blessing to my knowledge and were added by another clerk in their previous ward. Since they are not showing up under the "Household" tab they are not showing on our class rolls either.
When I try to edit under the "Family" tab I cannot say they are members since they do not have a record number and the other option is to create a record, when I try to create a record I am told not to do so because it is a duplicate. How can I get these children onto our rolls/get a record number?
I can create a duplicate and merge them but that seems like a last resort. Bonus info: they are working on being adopted and the nonmember spouse has a baptismal date, I'd like them to all be showing up correctly once the baptism is recorded.
Thanks again!
Aaron
