Here is what the instructions say:<br /><br />The middle section of the report features three different charts. The first chart on the left shows the current percentage of first four generation ancestors in FamilySearch Family Tree for members of the unit. In addition, it shows the trend over the past two years.<br /><br />See https://www.familysearch.org/blog/en/family-history-report-lcr/James Tannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02989059644120454647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793782800729950147.post-34022889560760123832019-03-03T06:27:23.444-08:002019-03-03T06:27:23.444-08:00Who knows?

Our ward has 66 percent. Does this mean that 66 percent of members have entered at least their own names in their own page? Is this recording adult members only? Now that those who are at least 8 years old can have their own accounts in familysearch, does this mean that 66 percent of the members in my ward have their own accounts and have entered their own names in family search? Or, does it mean that 66 percent of those members in our ward that have accounts have entered something in their four generations? I am interested because better information on this could help us know where we can focus our efforts - ie, completing four generations, introducing members to the memories section, helping those who have completed four generations to identify using decendency functions, etc. John Dysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02562170731044189421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793782800729950147.post-50612667716369247382019-03-03T05:54:58.211-08:002019-03-03T05:54:58.211-08:00I really like these reports.

You would have to review who was being counted as a youth with the clerk to see why the numbers seem to vary. Perhaps the Ward Clerk has not removed youth who have moved or have advanced due to birthdays.James Tannerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02989059644120454647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793782800729950147.post-32026739861474017412019-01-13T20:32:56.641-08:002019-01-13T20:32:56.641-08:00Is there a list of youth that are counted YTD?
