The ordinance date in Family Tree does not match what is in my personal records

Ordinance information in Family Tree is from official sources. The date in Family Tree could be earlier or later than you expected.

Here are typical reasons for the differences:

• If the date is earlier than your records indicate, your personal records could contain information for duplicate ordinances. Family Tree displays the earliest date that ordinances were completed.
• A duplicate record could be in Family Tree for the person. The earlier date probably shows with the duplicate record. Search for duplicates, and merge them.

Getting help

1. If you feel that ordinance information is incorrect or missing, contact FamilySearch.
2. Provide details:
   
   1. The name and Tree ID of the person
   2. Your relationship to the individual needing attention
   3. Information to help us find the person (name, birth date, and ID number).
   4. An explanation of what is wrong.
   5. What you believe to be the correct information.
   6. What evidence you have of the correct information.
