Awesome thank you I am my families historian and I am always looking for new information. I have many many many lines to cover mostly Maori but my great grandfather Francis Rudolph Shortcliffe married 7 times so its an interesting ride.

Most of us Mormons do it for the pleasure of finding our roots not to submit into the archives. My own sister's dates in the IGI are wrong as are my father's (both deceased). As for Proxy baptisms I myself have never done any though I know many who have and they all say they have "felt" the people they are doing it for around them and are very happy.
Most of the records submitted are from personal family histories and data sent by members of the church who have collected it whether it is correct or not depends on the collector (or submitting person as stated before). Alot of times even families get it wrong as I found out. With my father and sister but hey we can moan as much as we like at least someone is trying to find their family for what ever reason if it helps someone else who is searching its a small price to pay.
At least that is my opinion not that its worth anything to anyone else

Hi I am a descendant of Mary (Mere) Taruke Taite her daughter Harriet is my great grandfather's mum (My great grandfather is Francis Rudolph Shortcliffe.) His son Alexander Vesta Shortcliffe married Vera Nellie McGillivray their daughter Lynette Ann Shortcliffe married Eparaima Morton Manuirirangi from Taranaki and I am their youngest child. I have been doing genealogy for quite awhile and have all the information that has been passed down. There is not much information on Mary Taruke Taite at this stage although I am hunting.
