The following quotes come from the Introduction of  

"THE FAMILY HISTORY OF 

WILLIAM BRISTOL, 

ANE MARIE SOPHIE CLAUSEN,

 JOSEPH CAMBRON

 AND THEIR DESCENDANTS " 

By Pat L. Bird Sagers 

 The following is a  quote from President Russell M. Nelson in 1994 when he was a member of the Quorum of the Twelve.

"Following His crucifixion, Jesus ministered in the spirit world, setting in motion missionary work among those who had died without hearing the gospel. Baptism for these souls would logically be expected. Yet, only one verse in the New Testament refers directly to that need: “Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?”

Those questions of the Apostle Paul—without latter-day revelation—would remain an enigma. With the latter-day revelation, they become clear. Clarification began when the Prophet Joseph Smith was tutored by the angel Moroni, who said:

“I will reveal unto you the Priesthood, by the hand of Elijah the prophet, before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.

“And he shall plant in the hearts of the children the promises made to the fathers, and the hearts of the children shall turn to their fathers.

“If it were not so, the whole earth would be utterly wasted.”

He reiterated this past conference.

President Russel M. Nelson 

This is one of the key purposes of this blog. Not all of you are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. However, I have many non-member cousins and friends who love to do genealogy. 

This is one of the key purposes of this blog.  To help to provide families with the accounts of their ancestry.  

We get many comments from readers who say "Thank You for posting this information because my family will not share this information".

Thank you for sharing these snippets of history about my Great Grandparents, Mamie Margaret Tidwell and Alma Zabriskie. Histories are sometimes very hard to find, and I appreciate the efforts of others to preserve these histories! Pat Bird Sagers
