I am LDS and will explain it for all of you- I am able to look into a part
of the film numbers, as a member the church, that others can't. I looked up
one of the serial numbers for her, that she gave me, and they have to do
with sacred proxy work that we do in the temple.The serial numberr
information would not have information that would be of help to her
genealogical work, but I will check , just in case it does; the regular
numbers will be of greatest help to her; if any of you want me to explain
more fully, you can write me privately; I will go up there this week and
look up information for Kristen. I was going to go up last week and had an
emergency. Sue
