  1. I am AD leader and I had this same problem. We have a picture of Jesus that we bring to all of our activities to remind the Grils that we are ALWAYS being watched by Heavenly Father and Jesus....this has helped...also we meet in the RS room or Primary Room and NO one is allowed to leave without permission. We sent out cards to all the parents explaining some of our concernes with the girls running around...we NEVER know who could be in the building and with the events of the past year with girls being abducted from a Church we really got the parents attention. If we have a girl not cooperating repeatedly we ask her Mother to attend with her...we cannot be running after girls when our resposability is to teach Gospel Principals to the girls who are actually there to learn. Have a talk with your Bishop!!! My Bishop is wonderful and supports me in my calling!!!

    pray pray pray!

  2. Here's what I use:

    Genweb project – This is a project that consist of government records being put on the internet by volunteers. Very reliable depending upon the accuracy of the volunteer and clarity of the record.

    Google ‘genweb’ then click on the state you’d like to do research in. Then click on the county you are researching. This contains birth, death and marriage records as well as school records, family bible records, census, wills and tax records, etc. It’s being updated on a daily basis.

    LDS Website – (click on family history) You can register using your Membership Record Number and confirmation date. This allows you to see what, if any temple work has been done for a particular individual.

    Family Forums – Google (surname) family genealogy forum. You’ll find a list of correspondence from people doing research on the same family you’re researching.

    I am SO new to the site and family history. I found out that the Caleb Baldwin that was in Liberty Jail with Joseph Smith is my great great great great paternal grandfather. My father was not a member of the church nor were his parents. I am trying to find out when in history that my family fell away from the church. I want to do the Temple work but I can't seem to find what has and has not been done for my family. make sense?

    thanks to anyone who can help me!
