Welcome to the Joyous Genealogy channel. My goal is to share my passion for family history with the World. I have a vision that this channel will help me help so many other people connect to their ancestors. I love genealogy and want to learn all that I can and share that with others. There's protection that comes from searching out our dead. In my faith, we do ordinances for the dead. We believe that the ordinances we do for them help them progress so that they can return back to our Heavenly Father. There are many spirits that didn't have a chance to receive the gospel while on this earth so that's why we help them out. They are linked to us and we are linked to them! I really hope you decide to stay and join in the joy of doing genealogy with me.

How to find our Pioneers and the history surrounding the Casper Wyoming Temple.
Переглядів 54Місяць тому
This week is the open house for the Casper Wyoming Temple. It got me thinking about our pioneers who crossed the the plains to go out west. In this video I talk a little about the Casper Wyoming Temple and the history that surrounds it and how to find your ancestors who crossed the plains to go out west.

Good short Jojo!!! I actually get exponentially more views on my shorts than my videos -Melissa also from Catch the Buzz
Thanks, I think I’ve done like two or three shorts. I need to figure out how to do more successfully. Any tips?
unacceptable that this does NOT allow including dates for searching
That could be something they’re planning on adding in the future. Family search is really trying to improve their products so they encourage feedback on their new tools and features so feel free to share your thoughts and ideas. They do read all of the feedback they just ask you hit the feedback button in the section you want to comment on.
Yay! Good job you made a short!
Ya I don’t know what I’m doing but I thought I would give a short a shot. Have you checked your email yet??!
Yes I'm watching, looking for the winner of DNA 🎉 I LOVE GENEALOGY
Thanks for watching. I love hearing you love genealogy, makes me happy 😃
I love 💕 your intro by the way
Thanks, I think I finally got one I’ll stick with for a while.
Hey Jojo! We're at the Salt Lake FanX and over in that area right now! Next to our hotel on our block are the Family History Center and the Church History building! Sooo exciting! We will go to the Family History Center today and went to the Church History Center on Wednesday and they had just opened a new section that day. Workers told me that it was a surprise to them when they came into work! There were artifacts in this room all from the acquisition from the Church of Christ from March! What a blessing! I recorded some things and took pictures. What a strong Spirit there. We also recorded and took pictures of Temple square finished things and construction in action.
Awesome, I knew they were planning on putting the artifacts on display. Will you share your pictures on your channel? I’m excited to see them. Feel free to post some in our group but I understand if you want to save them for a video. Just give me a sneak peak in a message of temple square, artifacts and the library. lol Btw I feel so comfortable giving you my number. I do want to do a video with you. I’ve been dealing with health issues for the past several months so I’m still trying to stay a float. They have some exciting plans for the liberty jail and the independence visitor center in the works! 🤞 What will your main goal be today in the family history center? I’m so excited for you😀
@@JoyousGenealogist yes I will definitely be sharing them and all the Convention celebrity panel videos
18:05 😮 Thanks for sharing this Jojo! I missed this! Very very interesting. I think that since the Book of Mormon says that it takes place in the Americas and between things Joseph Smith has said and different evidences about what is unsealed happened in North America, that atleast part of the 2/3rds sealed happened in South America. I think this is preparation or foreshadowing to the things that we will learn in the second coming when we receive the knowledge of what is in the sealed portion
1:50 Ha ha ha! We're weirdos around here!!!
Haha 🤣
The Normandy American Cemetery is amazing. France donated the land.
Thanks for sharing that. I’m not familiar with the history of that cemetery. I’m guessing from your comment you’ve been there? How long ago were you there?
@@JoyousGenealogist ten years or so. Google it. It’s mammoth and beautiful.
I tried to enter. Not sure it worked. Didn't say I was entered.
Connie I checked and didn’t receive your entry. I can enter for you if you want to email me your full name and email address or you can retry it. Here’s my email joyousgenealogist@gmail.com
I joined the facebook group and did what it said so hope I was entered but Congrats and love your videos
Linda I did get your entry, thank you for entering 🙌🏼 and for your sweet words. It’s good to know I’m not just talking to myself all the time 😂
It says I have one entry 🤞
Awesome! Thank-you for letting me know 😁
Congratulations on getting over a thousand subscribers now woot woot!. If I didn't tell you already that I help get two family groups on family search going on both my sides and we are doing a whole bunch of names into the 700s right now on one line 5:33 Yes I'm glad you just said that I could get one for somebody else because my husband and I have both tested but my daughter has a boyfriend who doesn't really know who his Dad is because his mom was under the influence of things at the time. But he seems to be finally ready to find out. But things are really tight. He works to help pay the rent and he just turned 17. It's kind of rough for him. So I will hop over there and enter and let you know how it goes
So I think you’re referring to the new family groups. You are amazing for getting that rolling for your family. Wow, I’m just think about how this will snowball for you and your family because once you get them started they’ll feel the spirit and become addicted, hopefully haha 😆 Yes definitely put your name in the raffle/ drawing. That would be great if you could win it for your daughter’s boyfriend. 🤞🙏
Congratulations on reaching 1,000 subscribers!
Thank you very much!
thanks
@@rogercasilen9800 your welcome. 🤗
Congrats!!!!🎉
What I think is super cool is when I see a DOT out in the ocean and I find out there's an island there with the temple on it. How amazing is it? And whatever does it take to get a temple out in the ocean?
I believe Saints striving to live like Christ will get a temple built anywhere because of their faith.
Oh what is your email for me to contact you directly? Yes I love the temple paintings too. There was one in particular when we shut down for some changes and they changed the paintings and put an awesome one where we have our meeting before shift. It was right behind the pulpit where the speakers would be and it was so distracting. I love that painting
Hi Joni! (Is that how I spell it?) Yes I saw the video Open House. Beautiful!
Hey 👋, my name is spelled Joanie. The foyer and the celestial room were my favorite areas. The art work was gorgeous. What stood out to you?
@@JoyousGenealogist Honestly there was a rug that was pink with flowers that was really pretty
@@CatchTheBuzz1 oh ya that rug in the foyer was the most beautiful riff I’ve ever seen. The round table with the intricate carvings in the celestial room was beautiful too. The carvings on it I think were similar to the the wood at the front desk. I’ve always wondered who they employ to do all the design and customization of all the furniture, lights and decor?
I don’t know if I’m advanced or intermediate. I’m certainly not a pro. This year I’ve added over 2000 individuals and many thousands of changes made. I kind of have a lot of other things going on too. I really like the new source linker. It’s helped to correct so many problems. It’s fairly user friendly.
I’m new to your channel. Subscribed. I’m a genealogy nerd too.
Welcome!! I am genealogy nerd also. Do you use a software program for your genealogy research like roots magic or Family tree maker and if so, which one do you use or find most user friendly?
@@JoyousGenealogist I just use good ol’ family tree and ancestry and findagrave. I’m hoping to learn more from your content and others which may enable me to be more proficient.
@@mikepeterson7092 well I hope I don’t disappoint. I keep learning new stuff all the time. Seems like there’s a new tool or feature every time I log into family search or ancestry.
You’re awesome
Awe thank you for your kindness 😊
Congratulations! DNA test is something I need to do.
Thank you. I’m going to start having giveaways for dna kits, maybe you’ll win one 🙌🏼
Hey Jojo congratulations!
Thank you
Thank you!
There are some parts you should clip out in order to make a more enjoyable experience for viewers. All the talking to yourself and lagging pc bits are a waste of time.
@@lionheart830 thanks for the feedback, I totally agree, I typically try to edit out what I can but don’t always have time to do so.
Since I have been going to the temple every week ( with few exceptions) it would be cool to do a collaboration video with you sometime talking about our experiences and others, and the effects with the church etc and some Family stories etc
I would love to collaborate with you! Anytime we can share family history and temple experiences we are helping to gather Israel by inspiring others to gather their ancestors.
We are experienced in genealogy and my husband works for our State so he has access to more information which is awesome!
That is awesome!
I am so grateful for Family History and the opportunity that I have to go to the temple reasonably weekly. Even with having 7 kids and 5 still at home. I love Ordinance Ready. I feel you about time to do videos Joni! I have a job too and chickens and we do beekeeping. And we have 3 UA-cam channels! 1 that's Catch the Buzz, Faith based media and family. 2nd Love Notes From God, my channel about being a temple worker, my missions, seeing God's love notes to us in every day life. And Lord of the Sting that's about beekeeping! It's such an exciting opportunity to speak to and with people and learn and share. PS, I always like, comment and subscribe 😉
Wow! You are an inspiration to me. That’s a lot on your plate.
I consider myself a beginner. Just following my promptings.
Thanks for your comment Chris. Way to go in following the spirit 👍
What a marvelous trip! I’m waiting to see your report!
Never heard of it
Lucky!
Thank you for your channel. I just watched your video on when you went to the temple. So I've had this impression to start a youtube channel about family history. I find that it's a lot like what you are doing. I should have known about this because I saw you on Christian Homestead, but its important to follow your promptings which is what I am learning. Keep up the good work!
That’s wonderful news to hear that you’re going to start your own channel for family history. I’m happy to help in any way I can. Good luck job in following your prompting. We need as many saints who are willing to counteract those anti-Mormons out there and there’s a lot of them.
I struggle from time to time with depressive disorder, and I knew exactly what you were talking about when you said you have been doing all the right things to invite the Spirit to be with you, yet you haven't been able to feel it for a while. I had years of my life like that and it's such a sore unpleasant trial. With the depression, it just feeds into the feelings of failure or just the feeling of what must I be doing wrong even though you know you actually are doing your best, etc. Just wanted you to know I've experienced it and that I've learned from talking to others, it's a common characteristic to depression. I'm glad it seems you're making progress in therapy and are starting to feel the Spirit again. I just wanted you to know you're not alone. 😊
Thank-you for sharing this with me. You described perfectly how I’ve felt. I’m sorry you have dealt with this for longer periods. It’s awful and I understand who it’s hard to come out of. I started taking medication which has helped me. Dealing with trauma makes it worsen for me but I want to work through the trauma so I can live a happier life. I will keep you in my prayers. If you can, go to the temple as much as possible or do family history work, it has helped strengthen me and I know it will you to.🙏🏼
Thank you Joni! Recently I have come across people that have been added as a husband or wife with no sources and then I check into it and it makes no sense. But it's not easy to just remove someone especially when there are kids. So frustrating. It's sad too because of how many names get done at the temple that shouldn't be whether because of mistakes like this or duplicates. I'm glad people are trying. I pray whenever I do a merge or am not sure. I love it when I find missing children. Sealed 3 families yesterday. I'm only 6 minutes in. Thanks for this information
Thanks for your comment. They’re making merging and unmerging relationships easier. If you go to the parent and child relationship (pencil icon next to a persons name) on a person’s detail section you can remove and edit those child and parent relationships which helps in fixing those relationship mistakes. That’s awesome you sealed 3 families yesterday. Performing sealings are my favorite. Happy searching to you and let me know how I can help you in anyway with your research. 😀
Your eyes and hair color are just like my mom’s. She’s in the Spirit World close by, so I very much appreciate being reminded of her 😊 thank you for sharing!
Awe, That’s a very sweet compliment, thank you. 🙏
Good video! I actually understand! Lol! I saw it come up this morning and had to check it out. Well done, my friend!
Awesome! Thank you! I spent a lot of time on this one to get it right.
@@JoyousGenealogist it shows!
Thank you for sharing.. I like the beautiful picture of the temple in the background. You are absolutely right; it feels different when we do not sense the presence of the Holy Ghost. When we are accustomed to feeling it constantly and suddenly do not, it can indeed feel strange. I have learned to pray and reflect during these times, asking if there is something I need to repent for that might be causing this absence. Nevertheless, Christ's extended hands always lift me up and help me get back on track. I hope you are doing well. Dr. I
Great video! Thanks for all the great family history info. I need it!! I love the temple and I’m so grateful to be able to help my ancestors. Keep up the most important work!
Awe thanks. I get excited when people share their love for family history and the temple with me. The spirit of Elijah is contagious! 🙌🏼 I hope you can join us on Sunday 😃
You are definitely in my prayers, my friend!
Thank you Betty. You know my struggles better than anyone! Love ya sister 🥰
Hello beautiful..show some love here..i subscribed
Awe thank you and God bless! 🙌🏼😊
❤
Love old book smells!!
It reminds me of my grandmothers house 🏠
This conference is SO worth going to! I have been several years. It's exhausting and your brain is on overload. But it spurs you forward to new discoveries and new ideas you might have not thought of. Save your pennies throughout the year so you can attend.
I'm so excited for you to attend. I'm going to start saving now!!!
Thank you
your welcome I hope this information was helpful
I'm going to have to watch in the morning. Missed your announcement.
Ok I'll talk to you soon I'm sure. I know today was a rough day for you, I love you 🥰 and hope you're doing ok
I like this presentation. The concept of heritage takes on a profound meaning when linked to the spiritual realm. By connecting our genealogy with heaven, we are reminder of the eternal aspect of our identity and lineage. It's a poignant reminder that our true heritage is not only grounded in Christ but also extends beyond earthly boundaries, reaching towards the celestial realm. Thanks for this presentation. -DR.I
