AN AMAZING VISION

T’s Vision

I got a call from T.  She lives  just down the road from me.  She told me about the vision she had been given 30 November 2012.

 She was awakened by her deceased  grandmother.  Her grandmother  was dressed in white.  She pointed  to a group  (see DC 138) of people, who were also dressed in white.  They were standing in a line behind her.  She said,  “They are our family and they need their temple work to be done.”  One by one they stepped forward and gave their name. T wrote  down 25  names, spelling them as best she could.  Her grandmother stopped the line  and said that they were overwhelming T.    T  went back to sleep.

  Her grandmother returned. ( I thought of the similarity of when the Angel Maroni  appeared to Joseph Smith three times.)  She had 30 more people with her who  gave T their names.  T looked at the total list of 55 names.  Surnames had been given  together.  None of the names were familiar to T.

.  Weeping T finally went back to sleep.  Next day T called  her mother who has  their family data on a PAF file.  She had some of the same surnames  on her PAF pedigree.  They went to the Salt Lake City FH Library and got started fulfilling the mission  T’s grandmother given T.

 Tuesday, T came down to my house.  She showed me the simple  pencil written list of 55 names.  We looked some of the names up on Ancestry.com. They were there!!. They were even spelled just like T wrote them down.  Myer  instead of  the usual Meyer etc.  One of her direct ancestors was married, had children and died in a Civil War battle.  His own  temple work had been done, but not his wife and children. His wife and one daughter’s names  were on the list.  We found the rest of the family  on the 1860 census with 3 more children. T has now submitted them to Family Tree for temple work.

 I have heard of experiences like this.  This is the first time I am so close.  It would be very hard  to find these family members  and their relationship to  T  without thier full names.
