Serendipity: “I Am Not a Son!”

El Stone was just finishing an indexing batch. She was just ready to click the submit button when she distinctly heard a voice.

• Watch El tell her story in a short video titled “A Voice Said, 'I am Not a Son'” on LDS.org, the website of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
• For a little background, read El’s short story, “'I Am Not a Son,'” in the Ensign.
• If you prefer, you can read the story from a PDF of the entire magazine. See p. 72.

Indexing is an important activity that anyone can do. Indexing a record makes it possible for a computer to generate record hints in FamilySearch Family Tree. Hints make it possible for you to document your family. Documenting your family makes it possible to find new ancestors in the records that someone, maybe you, indexed. See familysearch.org/indexing for more information.
