Your Family History: Getting Started
By President Boyd K. Packer
Acting President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
"Family history work in one sense would justify itself even if one were not successful in clearing names for temple work. The process of searching, the means of going after those names, would be worth all the effort you could invest. The reason: You cannot find names without knowing that they represent people. You begin to find out things about people. When we research our own lines we become interested in more than just names or the number of names going through the temple. Our interest turns our hearts to our fathers—we seek to find them and to know them and to serve them."
(President Boyd K. Packer, Ensign Aug. 2003, pg 17)
